The Ambassador in Brazil (Gibson) to the Secretary of State

91. Minister for Foreign Affairs would value any information as to our progress toward recognition of Cuban government. Says he [Page 484] is anxious to follow our lead in this matter of primary interest to us but is now at a disadvantage in standing off pressure for recognition through lack of up-to-date information. Suggest Department keep me advised of developments from time to time.
