The CIA’s first intention to assassinate Raúl Castro was recalled in 1960 when an agent took over a pilot who took him to Prague for $ 10,000 to “orchestrate an accident”, documents published the fourth fourth of the National Security Archive, condemned in Washington .
The plan consisted of offering the Cuban pilot José Raúl Martínez a payment for “incurring risks to orchestrate an accident” in the Prague regression plane.
Martínez was informed of the mission by his contact with the CIA in Cuba William J. Murray in an airport tray tray.
In the conversation we will discuss the “limited possibilities of the incident occurring due to an accident” and the doubts about the technical ability of the agent to avoid an accident “without risking the lives of all persons on board”.
The pilot, who works for the CIA, ‘is looking to ensure that in the case of his own death his two children receive university education’, a local Murray accedió, which determines the cable for the national security archive.
Another published document indicates that after initiating the journey, the Washington office in Habana received orders to abandon the mission, but did not have to contact the pilot.
In Martínez’s regression, Murray was informed “that there was no opportunity to arrange an accident as discussed”.
These documents were published in coincidence with the dispatch of Raúl Castro from the political life in Cuba, which was withdrawn as the first secretary of the Communist Party.
The “tram accident” was described in a report by a Senate committee that in 1976 launched conspiracy to assassinate extraterrestrial leaders, conducting an investigation into CIA incubator operations, led by Senator Frank Church.
According to the National Security Archive, there are key details as to how the assassination was a pilot or the “accident” involving civil aviation.
This tram precedes the various plans to assassinate Raúl’s Herman, the long-suffering Fidel Castro and the failed Bastard invasion of Cochinos – funded by the CIA – of April 16, 1961
For the historian of the National Security Archive Peter Kornbluh, “these documents are a record of an obscure passage and the record of the operations of the United States against the Cuban Revolution”.
“At a time when the Castro era is officially in a final, United States officials have the opportunity to take a step back from this historic step and compromise on the future of a post-Castro Cuba,” the AFP reported.
