.MEMORANDUM FOR: National Intelligence Officer for Latin America
FROM: Director of Central Intelligence
SUBJECT: El Salvador
1. Jeane Kirkpatrick asked for our judgment on how close the
political situation in El Salvador is to unravelling. To what.extent
is Garcia's impending departure and the increasing influence of
General Suavo's rightists who are urging that the war be fought
more aggressively likely to unravel the government and/or change
the prospects for defeating the insurgency?
2. We need a close look at this rather quickly from both the
political and military standpoint. Get the perceptions around town
as well as those within the building here.
