BRAZIL Replying to our memorandum on the situation in Argentina, the Brazilian Government states that it does not desire to exclude Argentina from the signing of a pact of mutual assistance by the nations of this Hemisphere and it will continue usual diplomatic relations with the newly elected Argentine Government. 051 - - BULGARIA The British Foreign Office believes the USSR intervened at the last moment and forced the Bulgarian Fatherland Front to abandon its more conciliatory tone toward the opposition parties, thereby destroying the UK's hopes of an early establishment of diplomatic relations with Bulgaria. ECUADOR A tense political situation exists in the capital which 051- may lead to the downfall of the present government. The Ecuadoran President is under attack as attempting to establish a dictator- ship. 051 Metber INDONESIA Negotiations between the Dutch representatives and the Indonesians have resulted in agreement on major issues. lands East Indus IRAN Prime Minister Qavam has rejected Soviet counter proposals 051- on Iranian oil but negotiations are continuing. The USSR has accepted the Iranian proposal on the future status of Azerbaijan and Qavam says he is no longer worried over this question. Ambassador Murray says "it may be argued with some force that the course of Qavam's negotia- tions to date demonstrates that pressure on him is not overwhelming and that the agreement which may be reached will have been the result of give-and-take discussions by both sides." Our Consul in Tabriz reports 051-fran that the withdrawal of Soviet troops is being done in a way which arouses suspicions as to whether a real evacuation is being carried out. 051- POLAND Mikolajczyk is greatly disturbed by the terroristic campaign of the present government against all opposition groups.
