349SECRET-2-purposes SISTONE, of course, also had to spend much of his time with fellow members of the Cuerpo Consular, mostly with Leander VOURVOULIAS, the Cuerpo Consular president and ex-Greek Consul General, and Sra. Marta FONSECA Guardia de JIMENEZ, the Consul from Costa Rica and Cuerpo Consular secretary. SISTONE also met a Mexican engineer, Alfonso SIBAJA C., who is married to a Greek woman who is Press and Cultural Attache for Greece. SIBAJA is therefore active in, though not a member of, the Cuerpo Consular. It is very early to tell, of course, but a man like this could conceivably become an access agent to either Soviet or Cuban officials.2. At the entranceway SISTONE met and recognized Col. Konstantin Nikandrovich BOGATYREV, the Soviet Military Attache. Both on this occasion and later in the evening BOGATYREV seemed to have a forced grin on his face. He exchanged pleasantries but provided nothing of significance.3. In the reception area inside, SISTONE greeted Valentin LOGINOV and his wife, who readily recalled SISTONE and wife from the excursion to the Ford factory in July. LOGINOV also recalled that SISTONE was Raymond A. FRADYER's replacement and asked after the latter: Had he yet arrived in Paris? SISTONE said that he understood that FRADYER probably had arrived by now. SISTONE asked LOGINOV when he was leaving for the Soviet Union. LOGINOV answered that he was leavingSECRET

SECRET-3-on 7 October and that en route he was visiting New York City,a place that he was anxious to visit. He added that he wouldnot be visiting Paris to see his friend FRADYER. LOGINOV allevening was a very amiable host, circulating and talking topractically everyone present. About half the time he wassurrounded by a circle of very young and apparently unattachedMexican ladies - perhaps university students. Mrs. LOGINOVwas quite transformed from the very drab woman of the Ford.excursion. She was quite dressed up, even attractive, anddid her best to be a charming hostess, although this wasobviously a forced chore for her. (Later in the evening shebusied herself pointing out what she thought to be the choicestitems on the buffet table.) Valentin LOGINOV invited SİSTONEand his wife to visit him in Russia. SISTONE answered to theeffect that this would be wonderful someday if he or theRussian Government would pick up the tab. LOGINOV repliedthat that was not necessary because all Americans are so richthey can afford a trip anywhere. Later, talking to SARATOV(see paragraph 9 below), SISTONE was told that LOGINOV wouldbe spending three days in New York City. Later in the eveningLOGINOV had his picture taken, probably by a press photographer,with SISTONE's wife, and he was in general quite gallant withher. In the little speech following the buffet, LOGINOV thankedVOURVOULIAS for his few words of farewell and the Cuerpo.SECRET

SECRET-4-Consular gift of a silver plate. He ended his speech by saying, "Thanks on my wife's behalf and mine. You all have been very attentive to my great country." About the only times that LOGINOV seemed reflective and serious during the evening wore during this little speech and later in saying good-by to SISTONE (accompanying this with an abrazo).LOGINOV's last words to SISTONE were said with much real or imagined feeling: "You Americans and we Russians have to be real friends in these days of the world."4. Negatively, SISTONE did not see LIREALM-1; SAO'S friend, Yuriy VANOVSKY; or Chief, SB's friend, Boris CHMYKHOV, at the Soviet reception. Since there were over 100 people milling about, SISTONE, of course, could have missed those people.5. Prior to the buffet, SISTONE met again Leon (Spanish version of Lev) N. GOLOUZOV, a member of the Soviet Commercial Staff. SISTONE had met GOLOUZOV on the Ford excursion as well, and the two chatted briefly about that trip. GOLOUZOV gave SISTONE his calling card, which is attached.6. Standing beside GOLOUZOV, and obviously a very junior officer under the latter's wing, was Vladimir PETROV, also of the Soviet Commercial Office. Following the example of big brother, PETROV also gave SISTONE his calling card, which is attached. PETROV looked to be no more than in his late 20's.SECRET
[104-10174-10065.pdf — page 347]
SECRET-5-He is almost baby faced, has sort of a pug nose, is perhaps 5' 9" tall, is of medium to slim build, and has light hair. PETROV said he had only been in Mexico two weeks and was terribly confused by the vehicular traffic, which is much noisier and extensive than that of Moscow. Although he speaks Spanish quite well, he said that this is his first tour in Latin America.7. Also early in the evening SISTONE met Vladislav Sergeyevich KORMUSHKIN, Soviet Vice Consul. He is a fairly tall, heavy built, athletic-looking young man with a very strong handgrip on being introduced. KORMUSHKIN was almost the only Russian with whom SISTONE talked who did not even try to be friendly. He just stood around most of the evening, listening and looking very ill at ease.8. SISTONE only met Oleg Maksimovich NECHIPORENKO, LOGINOV's replacement, very briefly and on an occasion when LOGINOV was not around. Therefore, SISTONE was not formally introduced by title or as FRADYER's replacement to NECHIPORENKO. This man looks very Latin and could mix in a crowd on the street without any difficulty. He stayed very much in the background all evening. During the little ceremony in which he was introduced by the Charge as LOGINOV's replacement, he was asked when he had previously served in Mexico by the latter. He replied he had been in Mexico from 1960 (or 1961) to 1965.SECRET
[104-10174-10065.pdf — page 348]
SECRET-6-The Chargé described him as a young man advancing rapidly in the Soviet Foreign Service. He also said he had been a simple Military Attache before but is now a Second Secretary and is taking over as Consul. The Chargé described NECHIPORENKO as a non-Great Russian, SISTONE missed his nationality, if it was mentioned. The Chargé hastened to add that NECHIPORENKO's wife, however, is Great Russian.9. Possibly the longest conversation SISTONE had with any Russian was that with Eduard Anatolyevich SARATOV, the TASS representative. SISTONE was introduced to him by Findley HOWARD, local Pan American representative. SARATOV was the only one with whom SISTONE spoke in English. All other conversation with Russians and other non-Americans was in Spanish. SARATOV is a very smooth, gallant man-about-town. He seemed to really enjoy talking to Americans and other non-Russians at the reception, and bowed and established rapport with the ladies of all ages. He said he has been in Mexico two years, is married, and has one son in the fourth grade, who is naturally attending the Embassy school and who will be sent next year to the Soviet Union for his further education. He asked SISTONE how many children he has and commented on the answer, five, by saying that in his business it is not practical to have many children. SISTONE asked him how he gets his news to send home. SARATOV replied that he is obliged to send homeSECRET
[104-10174-10065.pdf — page 349]
SECRET-7-daily a resume of the most important Mexican events, much of which he obtains from the Mexican press. He added, with a smile, that he, of course, has to supplement such newspaper accounts with information from his own contacts. SISTONE asked if this meant, among other things, getting handouts from Government offices. SARATOV dismissed such sources as unimportant. He said this daily resume which he sends home by Telex takes him about two or three hours. He said he is the lone TASS representative here. He has his own office separate from the Embassy and prefers it that way. SARATOV claimed to have traveled around Mexico quite a bit. He seemed to be impressed with the Yucatan and wanted to know if SISTONE has visited there. The latter replied that he has not yet visited the Yucatan since being stationed here, but that, as a tourist, he had seen the ruins there some years ago. SARATOV said that he is from Siberia, and in answer to a SISTONE question said he thinks the Georgians are the warmest and friendliest people of the Soviet Union. SARATOV obviously likes to brag about having been stationed previously in Washington. He also said he would very much like to have been assigned to the new TASS office being opened in San Francisco. According to SARATOV, per an agreement between the United States and the U.S.S.R. the former will have a Consulate in Leningrad and the latter a Consulate in San Francisco, The opening ofSECRET

SECRET-8-the TASS office in San Francisco is somehow connected with the establishment of the Consulate. In speaking of LOGINOV'S three days in New York, SARATOV said he would recommend three things for him to visit: a good steak house, a good Chinese restaurant, and Rockefeller Center Music Hall.10. Somewhat after the despedida ceremony, SISTONE noted the Chargé, Boris Aleksandrovich KAZANTSEV, alone and introduced himself. From a distance KAZANTSEV looks extremely young for his high position; closer up he looks a little older. KAZANTSEV was extremely affable when he learned that SISTONE was a new member of the Cuerpo Consular. He said he is a member of an equivalent organization among the diplomats and in that context knows Mr. Wallace STUART quite well. He said he was extremely privileged a couple of nights previously to be able to shake Astronaut ARMSTRONG's hand and talk to him. He thinks the space program a wonderful adventure for both our countries, and he mentioned the current negotiations between the American Atomic Energy Commission and its Russian equivalent in working out the rules for use of peaceful nuclear energy. While affable, KAZANTSEV does not impart any feeling of sincerity whatsoever. He seems transparently cynical, and reminds one of a second-rate American politician. After the above conversation and when SISTONE was talking to a Mexican airport official, for some reason KAZANTSEV reapproachedSECRET
[104-10174-10065.pdf — page 351]
SECRET-9-SISTONE and said to him and the Mexican that he hoped there would be a rapprochement soon between the United States and Cuba. SISTONE cannot figure out why KAZANTSEV made that remark at that particular time unless 1) he thought the Mexican airport official was. a Cuban, or 2) he had been briefed by LOGINOV not only on the fact that SISTONE is FRADYER's replacement, but that FRADYER had somehow been connected with Cuban operations.11. SISTONE only met Yuriy CHERNYSH, Soviet Vice Consul, very briefly to shake hands near the end of the evening. He was easily recognizable from his very light gray hair.12. SISTONE was only sure of one Cuban's being present, Rafael MIRABAL. At one time; SISTONE thought he saw a gentleman who looked a little like Ambassador Joaquin HERNANDEZ Armas, but at second glance he did not think so. There was no doubt in SISTONE's mind that MIRABAL was avoiding him. On one occasion, MIRABAL was quite close, within earshot, and may well have heard SISTONE either talking English to a fellow American or his wife, or discussing something American. Thereafter, every time SISTONE tried to work his way toward MIRABAL, the latter would shortly move further away. Twice SISTONE talked to people that vaguely looked like they might be Cubans from the mug book, only to discover in both cases that they were Mexican.SECRET
[104-10174-10065.pdf — page 352]
SECRET-10-13. One of the above Mexicans turned out to be Alfonso SIBAJA C., who described himself as a mechanical engineer and industrial consultant. His address is Ezequiel 82, Mexico 14, D.F., and his telephone number is 17-88-85. This man is the husband of a lady he described as Press and Cultural Attache of the Greek Embassy. SISTONE was also introduced to her somewhat later and got the impression that she is not Greek but either all Mexican or perhaps of partial Greek ancestry. SIBAJA and SISTONE exchanged calling cards (SIBAJA's is attached). SIBAJA said that he and his wife attend such functions as this reception quite frequently and definitely recalled not having met SISTONE before. The latter explained his recent arrival. SIBAJA claimed that he is a good singer of folklore songs and that his wife knows how to dance them. They have performed spontaneously quite often at diplomatic and consular affairs. Asked whether he would be going on the Cuerpo Consular excursion scheduled for late October, SIBAJA said he would like to go. He is a working man, however, and was not sure he could get away. SIBAJA and wife and SISTONE and wife established rapport rather easily, and all agreed they should meet again rather shortly. SIBAJA said that he is of partial French ancestry. He looks as though he might be Mideastern, however. He is proud that he is from JUAREZ' home state of Oaxaca. It would seem to SISTONE that this isSECRET

SECRET-11-the kind of man who might be used as a fairly nonsuspicious access agent to either the Soviets or the Cubans. He obviously circulates in their social milieu. SISTONE intends to follow up on this man. He said he lives in Colonia Lindavista, where SISTONE'S wife's relatives are concentrated. He has a son going to Colegio Tepeyac in that area.14. The only Americans SISTONE was aware of at the reception were 1) Clyde SNIDER, Chief of the Visa Section of the Consulate, 2) Findley HOWARD, of Pan American, and 3) David WIESLEY, American businessman and Honorary Consul of Iceland.15. Considering the fact that SISTONE was only in the Soviet Embassy a little over one hour and had to spend a good part of his time talking to SNIDER, VOURVOULIAS, and that real pain-in-the-neck, Sra. JIMENEZ, he considers his contact with Soviets about the maximum that could be achieved under the circumstances.Attachment:Copy of calling cards (3)Distribution:Orig - SIBAJA (new P), w/att1 - P-11712 (LOGINOV), w/o attTDS:lmpSECRET

I arrived ten minutes prior to the anointed time, noted Subject's car parked around the corner, entered the restaurant and found Subj without difficulty.2. Without any preliminaries to speak of, Subj told me that he had interesting news for me. As he hesitated for a moment I asked him if he had been invited to the despedida this evening. He was a bit shocked and probably disappointed, but broke with a "no, what", but recovered quickly and admitted that this was to have been the interesting news - yes he had been invited and was going. He explained that he had made a phone call to the embassy to invite LOGINCY to his house for a farewell party, but the latter turned the tables and invited Subj to the despedida. Subj claimed that he told LOG that this in reality a "dirty deal", but LOG countered with the claim that Moscow wants him to return urgently and now he was too busy to consider personal invitations. (Subj did not appear to be unhappy with this turn of events.) Subj promised to keep his eyes and ears open and fervently hoped that LOG would introduce him to his replacement, the un-official one.3. Above, of course, took only a few minutes, the rest of the time Subj discussed women, food, drink, and related topics. He would like, he said, to be better acquainted with Alla GLEBOVA (works at Sovemb) whom he considers to be an exceptionally interesting girl, although married. (I don't believe he is in a position to do much about this. I believe he is capable of seducing a lot of girls, but I don't see how he could work up much access to this woman.)4. Subj gave a copy of a short paper (written in Russian) he worked up on his friend REMAREV who lives in San Juan del Rio, near Queretaro. Subje is very anxious to have us help this individual but I still don't see much point in it. I asked Subj is REMAREV is acquainted with anyone at the embassy and was told that he might know one or two the Kazakhs/Spaniards/Greeks (nines ?) who are employed there. REMAREV is one of these himself. A translation of the document is attached.5. Subj is a very friendly, likable chap, but I do not him think he could find it difficult to fabricate something, whether it be important or otherwise. This is surely an opinion, so far, based on nothing concrete.6. Subject expressed a desire to have a "blast" with me sometime with no reference to business. I said I would consider it, perhaps it would be amusing.DFDD. FORMANSON

During the Spanish Civil War was taken to the USCR with other children. Completed his elementary sencaling in Spanish childrens' schools.

Daring periods of vacation from the elementary schools, instead of just fooling around as did the other kids, he would wora as a shepherd, water boy, in vineyards, took long walls, read, swan, ani always tried o be a loner. Therefore, he was not very well liked, was teased, and once, knowing that he was not a good swimer, was thrown from a steep bank into the river ALIA My mother dragged him out. He always loved her, and to this day has great affection for her. Whenever he visits exico he never fails to call on her. Being acquainted with his character ani sentiments, I would say that now, living in a lead city, he suffers greatly. I suppose that because of his loneliness he impregnated a stupid, old fashioned, infan girl. diş political views are the most liberal, and being an intelligent fellow, he was never placed in an unconfortable position, although he was not fully trusted.I think, that were it possible to use these characteristics, we could use him to our great advantage."I toli Subject that we would make no move whatsoever, until, and cermaps not even then, he provided me with personal biographic data re the above individual.DFDD. 3.

359MexicoTo September 27,19691. Talking to various people, such as Guillermo Tardiff, no information has been circulated or has circulated regarding the fact that Carrillo Flores did not attend the interview of Raul Roa, foreign minister of Cuba and president Diaz Urdaz.2. By going to the General Assembly of the United Nations, lic. Carrillo Flores, secretary of Foreign Relations is out of the presidential race by constatutional reasons.According to people who may be considered as knowing about politics Carrillo Flores never had a chance to be nominated because of his closc associations with United States Pankers.2. On the 18 of September I went to the national day celebration at the Chilean embassy, where I met Kazantsev who invited me to go to their ambassy on the first of October for a farewell party fcr Valentin Longuinov, who is leaving soon. The new checoslova- quian ambassador was with Kazantsev. I arrived late and many people had already left. Wallace Stuart was there, the new Rau ambsaador, the Chana ambassador, the Paraguyan chargé d'affairs, an several other diplomats of minor importance. The Chilean colony seems to be quite large.

He was not further identified.4. Subj then went on to relate two other 8 "odd" experiences he had had prior to his coming to Mexico. They are not worth repeating here. I told Subj I would try to locate the afore mentioned street on the Moscow map but that I did not take any of this very seriously.
