Central Intelligence Agency Report, Office of National Estimates Memorandum, Washington, March 13, 1969
Abstract
Washington, March 13, 1969
The CIA reported that a decline of prospects for Communist-oriented radicalism in Africa had apparently led Moscow to some shifts in emphasis in its approach to black Africa. The African elite tended to view Soviet ideology as irrelevant and was still culturally attuned to the West.
