Italy - Latin America: The Italian Communists
are reported to be trying to persuade Latin American
Communist parties to oppose the Soviet position on
Czechoslovakia.
Giuliano Pajetta, a Communist federal deputy
whose brother is one of the party's top figures, ap-
pears to be in charge of the Italian effort. He was
recently singled out for criticism by a Soviet party
consultant for non-bloc affairs who charged that his
work in Latin America was splitting the left and
creating problems for the Soviets and Castro. Pajetta
visited Peru last month for a meeting of the Inter-
parliamentary Union and went on to Chile and other
countries. Latin American Communist parties except
the Mexican have supported the Soviet intervention
and may be reluctant to change their position.
The Italian Communist Party has been trying for
some time to coordinate the opposition of a number
of Communist parties to the Soviet action in Czech-
oslovakia. They have worked closely with the French
Communists and have consulted the Bulgarian and Hun-
garian as well as the Rumanian, Yugoslav, British,
Austrian, and Spanish parties.
The Japanese Communist Party has sent represent-
atives to Europe to discuss Czechoslovakia and Viet-
nam at the invitation of the Italian and French Com-
munist parties.
