Iraq: Premier Qasim's fear of further disloyalty in the army appears to have given the Communist-dominated Pop- ular Resistance Force (PRF) increased influence at the ex- ense of the army. The PRF commander claimed to have been empowered to prevent "illegal interfer- ence" by the Iraqi Army in PRF activities. The Communist- controlled "Iraqi Peasant Organization" has petitioned Qasim for permission to arm for protection against antiregime tribesmen and to "reinforce the armed government forces:' The Communists are thus continuing to exploit Iran's inst Willy to increase their paramilitary strength.

The unknown official in Lhasa states that the "thole Tibetan race" is asking for independence and is expecting to set up a "Tibet kingdom" consisting of Tibet proper and Tibetan-inhabited areas of west China, including Szechwan and Yunnan provinces� criticizes Chang Kuo-hua, Chinese commander of the Tibet Military Dis- trict, for mishandling the revolt and describes his leadership as "quite inferior,!' Conditions in Lhasa are now "very peaceful," I The Lhasa speaker 'states there is no rifle fire inside the city or on the outskirts, and he adds that during the fighting, all personnel of th stal telecommunications bureau "did not dare" go outdoors. Despite the reported criticism, Chang Kuo-hua continues to be the regime's most prominent official in Lhasa. As vice chair- man of the Preparatory Committee for the Tibet Autonomous liegion, Chang told the committee's plenum on 8 April that the Tibetan rebels organized a "volunteer' headquarters for defending Lamaism," appointed a "military chief," recruited men between the ages of 16 and 60, and called for establishment of an "YndependenVstate of Tibet,7' He admitted that Khamba guerrillas from former Sikang Province had been provided with food and ammunition "everywhere they went" in Tibet, but he made it clear that he would not let the lamaseries serve as places of refuge for either Khambas or Tibetans. Supplementing Peiping's military countermeasures, the or- ganization of the Preparatory Committee has been expanded to include several new departments, of which the Public Security Department will have the major police role� The Panchen Lama TOP-SECRET 13 Apr 59 CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE BULLETIN Approved for Release: 2020/02/21 C03156035 Page 1 � � � -- Approved for Release: 2020/02/21 C03156035 has called for the regimentation of ecclesiastical and secular mem- bers of Tibetan society and requested them "to feed information to army units engaged in quelling the rebellion, take part in transpor- tation and supply work,, and organize comfort activities" for the troops. He announced new criteria for political reliability, sug- gesting that reluctant acquiescence in regime policies will no longer be tolerated, as "willingness to follow the path of social- ism" is now mandatory for all Tibetans. Maintaining the pose that he is only second choice for the most prominent Tibetan position, the Panchen Lama insists he is serv- ing as "acting chairman" of the Preparatory Committee for the Tibetan Autonomous Region "during the period of the Dalai Lama's absence under duress." While he expressed "great sympathy and concern" for the safety of the Tibetan leader, he gave no indica- tion that the Chinese Communists expect his return from India in the near future. In continuing its line that the Dalai Lama has been abducted, Peiping is directly contradicting Nehru's stated view that he prob- ably escaped "of his own free This tactic is designed in part to demonstrate to Tibetans that the Dalai Lama really sup- ports Peiping and in part to warn Nehru against abetting "kidnap- ers" by permitting the Dalai Lama to engage in anti-Communist political activities. On 10 April the Chinese Communists repeated the charge that the rebels were "directed and supported" by ele- ments in Kalimpong.

In the past, Moscow has advised the UAR that the Soviet Union distinguishes between arms deals and commercial agreements, and that nonmilitary goods can be obtained only under short-term commercial credits without liberal discounts. Negotiations for additional Soviet military aid have been under way in Moscow since last July, and a new agreement may be concluded shortly. The proposed terms of the new agreement are the most liberal yet extended to a nonbloc country by the Soviet Union, with the possible exception of a small arms deal concluded with Yemen in 1956. Under the new agreement, the UAR will ob- tain Soviet arms at one third of cost, with repayment to be made in five annual installments beginning in 1967 at a 2-percent rate of interest. Since 1955 Egypt and Syria have receiv ,41 mare than A500.000 000 worth of military aid from the Soviet bloc. 13 Apr 59 CENTRAL INTFI I InFKICF RIB I FTIN Approved for Release: 2020/02/21 C03156035 Page 3 rfrelnoT Approved for Release: 2020/02/21 C03156035 44,0, IL ASIA-AFRICA I Continuing Strains in UAR-USSR Relations ir has decided that UAR Ambassador Kuni, who left11oscow for consultations in Cairo in early April, will not return to his post for the time being, This move is in response to the extended absence from Cairo of Soviet Ambassador Kissilev, who returned to Moscow in Feb- ruary. Nasir believes that Kissilev had planned to return to Cairo in order to smooth over current UAR-Soviet friction, but that Nasir's 30 March speech--a strong criticism of the USSR for interference in Arab affairs--in the presence of So- viet military instructors was responsible for changing Soviet plans for Kissilev's retur-n]. Crhe UAR has continued its propaganda charges regarding the repatriation of Kurdish refugees from the USSR to Iraq. Cairo broadcasts on 11 April claimed that a second shipload of armed "Russian" Kurds is en route to Iraq and that Iraqi Communists, in connivance with the repatriated Kurds, are preparing to carry out a coup in Baghdad. A TASS statement on 11 April, denying that the 850 Kurds who previously re- turned to Iraq aboard the Gruzia are armed and trained for guerrilla warfare, accused Western press agencies with orig- inating such reports, thus sidestepping the issue of UAR author- shiD tacks by by Nasir on Soviet policy have scared Soviet officials and technicians now in the UAR, If Soviet-UAR tensions and the hostility allegedly being ciisplayeci by Egyptians toward Soviet personnel continue, Soviet depend- ents reportedly will be returned to the USSR.

The embassy reported that an Algerian repre- sentative had conveyed the rebels' thanks for "material,. .being prepared" in Saudi Arabia and also for financial aid just received by the rebel office in Damascus. Subsequently, Algerian rebel premier Ferhat Abbas, in an off-the-record interview granted annAmerican correspondent on 3 April, stated that the Saudis had become the "strongest defend- ers" of the Algerian cause in the Arab world and that "almost all" rebel funds now come from Saudi Arabia and Iraq. Abbas, who visited Saudi Arabia early last month, also indicated that the Saudis were making available to the rebels licenses originally granted to the Saudi Government for the purchase of arms in West Germany. Meanwhile, relations between the Algerians and UAR Pres- ident Nasir, their erstwhile chief patron and most vocal public champion, appear to have deteriorated further in recent weeks, rebel officials in Tunis informed Algerian elements in Tripoli that Cairo would no longer permit Algerians who did not have a valid passport to cross the Egyptian-Libyan border in either direction, Personnel transport- ing "materiel" who had travel permits furnished by the Eg )tian authorities were to be exempted from this regulation.

THE WEST Nicaraguan Exiles Planning Revolution Nicaraguan revolutionary leader Enrique Lacayo was en- dorsed as the future provisional president of Nicaragua at a 6 April meeting in Havana of some 30 Nicaraguan exiles and seven Cuban sympathizers. Lacayo, who escaped from Nicara- gua early last month after spending over two years in jail for alleged complicity in the 1956 assassination of Nicaraguan strongman Somoza, by late March had been selected by oppo- sition factions inside Nicaragua and in exile in Costa Rica as their joint leader. Lacayo's endorsement by those represented at the Havana meeting, which included the leader of an alleged 200 Nicaraguan exiles in the New York City area: strengthens his claim to lead- ership,. It is not known whether he sought or received the backing of the pro-Communist Nicaraguan groups that have been sympa- thetically received by Cuban authorities, but prior to his depar- ture for Cuba he indicated to the US ambassador in Costa Rica that he was determined to prevent Communist penetration of the Nicaraguan revolutionary movement. Lacayo is believed to look to former Costa Rican President Figueres as his revolu- tionary mentor, and Figueres is known to be strongly opposed to dealing with the Communists in revolutionary planning. Manuel Gomez Flores, former Nicaraguan colonel and per- sistent revolutionary plotter for the past 12 years, apparently regards himself as qualified to lead the military phase of the movements Now in Cuba, he claims he has already tentatively chosen the Man of War Keys--a few miles off the Nicaraguan Caribbean coast--as the rendezvous point for the invasion and the nearby Rio Grande estuary as the mainland landing area� It appears unlikely that a concerted revolutionary invasion can be launched before the start of the rainy season, which will come in about a month and would make military operations ex- ceedingly difficult in the swampy Nicaraguan coastal area. The exile groups are still subject to strong rivalries, however, and the possibility of a premature attempt by one faction trying to beat the others to the draw cannot be eliminated.
