Reurtel 760, April 18.12 The mere intervention of Axis spearhead firms is not regarded as a valid basis for withdrawing Proclaimed List for Argentina.

The actual accomplishment of the expropriation, forced sale or liquidation of these firms together with the implementation and execution of a satisfactory replacement program would furnish a basis for completely or virtually withdrawing the List.
