HOMELAND AND LIBERTY, AND THE SMALLER, BUT VIRULENT, FIRST OF
OCTOBER ANTI-FASCIST RESISTANCE GROUPS (GRAPO). ETA HAS
LIMITED INTERNATIONAL CONNECTIONS, PRIMARILY WITH BASQUES
RESIDENT IN FRANCE, BUT CLAIMED RESPONSIBILITY IN 1990 FOR
SEVERAL TERRORIST ACTS AGAINST SPANISH INSTALLATIONS IN THE
NETHERLANDS. GRAPO, ALSO BASICALLY A DOMESTIC TERRORIST GROUP,
HAS AT LEAST THE PUBLIC SYMPATHY OF THE GERMAN RED ARMY
FACTION. TWO SMALLER TERRORIST GROUPS WERE ACTIVE IN 1990:
TERRA LLIURE, A CATALAN SEPARATIST GROUP, AND THE GUERRILLA
ARMY OF THE FREE GALICIAN PEOPLE (EGPGC), A GALICIAN
NATIONALIST GROUP.

1. SUMMARY: ACCORDING TO WELL-INFORMED LEADER IN
SPANISH OPPOSITION, EC COMMISSIONERS VOTED APR 7 TO MAKE
FORMAL REPLY TO GOS COMPLAINT ABOUT LETTER ADDRESSED TO GOS
ON PERSONAL BASIS BY FIVE EC COMMISSIONERS PROTESTING
WITHDRAWAL OF PASSPORTS FROM FIVE SPANISH OPPOSITION LEADERS
WHO TOOK PART IN MEETING MAR 10-14 IN STRASBOURG WITH
EC LEADERS (REFAIR). END SUMMARY

CONFIDENTIAL

CONFIDENTIAL

PAGE 02 MADRID 02476 111926Z

2. GARCIA TREVIJANO, WELL-KNOWN LAWYER AND ACTING
ORGANIZATIONAL SECRETARY OF "JUNTA DEMOCRATICA", A GROUP WHOSE
MAIN POWER BASE IS SPANISH COMMUNIST PARTY, TOLD EMBOFF
APR 8 THAT JUNTA'S PLENUM MET IN STRASBOURG MAR 10-14
AND HELD MEETINGS WITH SEVEN EC COMMISSIONERS (REFAIR).
SINCE HIS RETURN FROM STRASBOURG GOS HAD ORDERED HIM TO
TURN IN HIS PASSPORT; FOUR OTHER SPANIARDS WHO ATTENDED
MEETING HAVE ALSO HAD TO TURN IN PASSPORTS INCLUDING WELL-
KNOWN LAWYER RAUL MORODO, A KEY FIGURE IN POPULAR SOCIALIST
PARTY OF TIERNO GALVAN.

3. ACCORDING TO TREVIJANO, GOS HAD RECEIVED TELEGRAM
FROM FIVE EC COMMISSIONERS WHO, IN THEIR PRIVATE CAPACITY,
PROTESTED WITHDRAWAL OF PASSPORTS. GOS, HE SAID, REACTED
SHARPLY TO MESSAGE AND INSTRUCTED GOS AMBASSADOR TO EC,
ULLASTRES, TO RAISE MATTER FORMALLY WITH EC. SOAMES AND
HAFERKAMP REPORTEDLY LED EFFORT TO SUPPORT PRIVATE ACTION
OF FIVE COMMISSIONERS. WHEN ISSUE RAISED WITH ALL
COMMISSIONERS APR 7, CONSENSUS WAS THAT VOTE
SHOULD BE TAKEN. IN SUBSEQUENT VOTING TEN COMMISSIONERS
SUPPORTED DECISION TO APPROVE ACTION TAKEN BY ORIGINAL
SEVEN IN PROTESTING PRIVATELY TO GOS.

4. "YA" (INDEPENDENT) REPORTED ABOVE FACTS APR 10 SAYING
THAT ULLASTRES HAS ALSO SEEN SOAMES ON ISSUE. FIVE SIGNA-
TORIES TO TELEGRAM WERE REPORTEDLY SPINELLI, SIMONET,
CHEYSON, THOMPSON AND HAFERKAMP. APR 10 EDITION OF "YA"
REPORTED THAT EC PUBLICATION "EUROPE" CONTAINED STATEMENT
REFERRING TO ISSUE CONFIRMING TRANSMITTAL TO PRESIDENT
ORTOLI (ONE OF PARTICIPANTS IN STRASBOURG MEETING WITH
JUNTA DEMOCRATICA LEADERS) OF GOS NOTE PROTESTING TELEGRAM
OF FIVE COMMISSIONERS. ACCORDING TO "EUROPE" STATEMENT,
ORTOLI TOLD SPANISH MISSION THAT COMMISSIONERS HAD ACTED
ON OWN ACCOUNT AND ANY OTHER INTERPRETATION WOULD BE
INCORRECT. MOREOVER, SOAMES REPORTEDLY TOLD
ULLASTRES THAT "COMMISSION AS SUCH HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH
TELEGRAM."

5. COMMENT: PASSPORT ISSUE HAS RECEIVED CONSIDERABLE
PUBLICITY IN SPAIN AND, AS SEEN FROM OUTSIDE SPAIN, CAN
DAMAGE GOS EFFORTS TO PROJECT MORE LIBERAL IMAGE CONSISTENT
CONFIDENTIAL

WITH PREMIER ARIAS NAVARRO'S ANNOUNCED PROGRAM. GOS' SHARP
REACTION TO EC COMMISSIONERS TELEGRAM HAS RESULTED IN
ADDITIONAL PUBLICITY WHICH CAN ONLY FACILITATE DEMOCRATIC
JUNTA'S EFFORTS TO FOCUS ATTNETION ON ITS ACTIVITIES. ON
OTHER HAND, SOME EC COMMISSIONERS, BY APPROVING OF USE OF
EC FACILITIES IN STRASBOURG FOR HOLDING OF EXECUTIVE
COMMITTEE PLENUM OF JUNTA, EITHER KNOWINGLY OR UNKNOWINGLY,
HAVE GIVEN JUNTA, WHICH HAS DECIDEDLY LEFTIST PROGRAM AND
IS DOMINATED BY SPANISH COMMUNIST PARTY, DESIRED RESPECT-
ABILITY AND AURA OF IMPORTANCE WHICH IS NOT WARRENTED BY EC
INTERESTS. EMBASSY HOPES THAT, AS SUGGESTED IN REFAIR, U.S.
EMBASSIES AND MISSIONS WILL BE PREPARED TO DISCUSS THIS
ISSUE WITH EUROPEAN COMMUNITY CONTACTS, ALERTING THEM
TO THE TACTICS EMPLOYED BY THIS PARTICULAR
GROUPING OF THE SPANISH OPPOSITION.

IN SPAIN, UNLIKE PORTUGAL, THE POLITICAL PARTIES
OUTSIDE THE REGIME (E.G., LIBERALS, CHRISTIANS, SOCIAL-
ISTS) HAVE A POLITICAL TRADITION. CONSEQUENTLY, THE
SOCIALISTS IN SPAIN (FOR EXAMPLE, PSOE) ARE MORE REAL-
ISTIC THAN SOARES' SOCIALISTS WERE IN THE BEGINNING.
THE SPD HAS CLOSE RELATIONS TO THE PSOE BUT ALSO HAS
CONTACTS WITH OTHER SOCIALIST GROUPS. THERE DOES NOT
APPEAR TO BE A DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE SPANISH MILITARY
SIMILAR TO THE PORTUGUESE EXPERIENCE. THIS IS PARTLY BECAUSE SPAIN DOES NOT HAVE COLONIES WHICH IN THE CASE
OF PORTUGAL SERVED AS A BREEDING GROUND FOR THE RADICALIZATION OF THE MILITARY. ONE HAD TO BE VERY CAREFUL,
HOWEVER, IN PREDICTING DEVELOPMENTS WITH THE MILITARY AS
THE PORTUGUESE EXAMPLE PROVED.

1. FURTHER TO REPORTING BY INFO ADDRESSEES ON ANTI-MACIAS
PLOTTING BY REFUGEES FROM EQUATORIAL GUINEA, EMBASSY SUBMITS
THE FOLLOWING.

2. A LOCAL AMERICAN BUSINESSMAN RECENTLY REPORTED TO THE
EMBASSY THAT HE HAD WRITTEN A LETTER TO JAMES BURNS, FORMER
MEMBER OF HOUSE MILITARY AFFAIRS COMMITTEE, URGING HIM TO
USE HIS INFLUENCE TO HAVE THE USG SUPPORT "DEMOCRATIC ELEMENTS"
OPPOSED TO MACIAS' REGIME. HE WARNED TO PRESENCE OF
SOVIETS AND CUBANS IN EG AND "ALERTED" BURNS TO THE STRATEGIC
POSSIBILITIES OF A U.S. NAVAL BASE. BUSINESSMAN CLAIMED HE WAS
IN CLOSE CONTACT WITH MANY EG REFUGEES IN SPAIN WHO WERE PLANNING
A COUP TO OVERTHROW MACIAS. EMBOFF, DRAWING FROM
INSTRUCTIONS IN REF, TOLD BUSINESSMAN THAT USG WOULD NOT

BE INVOLVED IN ANY FASHION WITH PLOTTING AND ALSO URGED
BUSINESSMAN NOT TO BECOME INVOLVED HIMSELF.

3. IN A SEPARATE CONVERSATION WITH ANOTHER EMBOFF A LOCAL
SPANISH BUSINESSMAN WITH CLAIMED CONTACTS IN EG SAID THAT SOME
"SPANISH BUSINESS INTERESTS" WERE PLOTTING A COUP AGAINST
MACIAS. THIS PLOT INVOLVED MACIAS' ONLY LIVING OPPONENT
FOR THE PRESIDENCY (FNU ANDREAS), REPORTEDLY NOW IN
SWITZERLAND. THESE LOCAL BUSINESSMEN, IN EXCHANGE FOR
THE POSSIBILITY OF RESUMING NORMAL BUSINESS ACTIVITIES IN
THE EG, HAVE BEEN TALKING OF HAVING MACIAS KILLED AND ALLOW
ANDREAS TO TAKE CHARGE. THEY BELIEVE THAT WITH MACIAS OUT OF THE
WAY THERE WOULD BE LITTLE OPPOSITION TO ANDREAS. EMBOFF
ALSO MADE CLEAR THAT U.S. HAD NO REPEAT NO INTEREST
IN ANYONE'S SCHEMES TO INTERVENE IN THE EG.

4. THE GOS IMPOSED BLACKOUT ON PRINTING EG NEWS IN THE
SPANISH MEDIA REMAINS IN EFFECT, PRESUMABLY TO AVOID GIVING
OFFENSE TO MACIAS, THOUGH WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT GOS
IS ALSO AFRAID THAT SOME OF THE NEWS FROM EG WOULD
INFLUENCE EG EXILES HERE.
STABLER

El Government Of States impuso la materia reservada en los medios de comunicacion españoles presumiblemente para evitar ofensas a Macias aunque el Government Of States tambien tiene miedo que las noticias de Guinea ecuatorial afecten a los exiliados de Guinea ecuatorial aqui.

1. EQUATORIAL GUINEA AMBASSADOR ESONO MICA CALLED ON ME MARCH
18 BRINGING A MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT MACIAS WHOM HE HAD JUST
SEEN IN EQUATORIAL GUINEA.

2. THE PRESIDENT REQUESTS ME TO COMMUNICATE WITH WILLIAM
HUMPHREY, AMOCO VICE PRESIDENT FOR NEGOTIATIONS, TO REQUEST
THAT HE COME TO EQUATORIAL GUINEA AT THE EARLIEST OPPORTUNITY
TO CONCLUDE AN EXPLORATION AGREEMENT. THERE IS NO NEED TO SEND
THE AGREEMENT ON AHEAD FOR STUDY. THE PRESIDENT WILL BE PRE-
PARED TO DISCUSS IT AND CONCLUDE THE NEGOTIATIONS VERY QUICKLY
DURING HUMPHREY'S STAY, (AMBASSADOR ESONO HAD THE IMPRESSION
THAT HUMPHREY HAD COMMUNICATED TO MACIAS THAT AN AGREEMENT WAS
UNDER PREPARATION, THAT IT WOULD BE FORWARDED TO MACIAS FOR
CONSIDERATION BY HIS GOVERNMENT AND THAT SUBSEQUENTLY HUMPHREY

WOULD COME TO E.G. TO CONCLUDE THE AGREEMENT. THE OBJECTIVE
NOW SEEMS TO BE TO TELESCOPE THESE STEPS.).

3. REQUEST THAT CONTENTS PARA 2 BE TELEPHONED TO HUMPHREY AND
THAT DEPARTMENT FORWARD HIS RESPONSE, EVEN IF ONLY PRELIMINARY,
WHICH I CAN PASS ON TO AMBASSADOR ESONO HERE.

4. IN HIS IMPATIENCE TO HAVE A SIGNED AGREEMENT AND RELYING ON
GOOD FAITH AND REPUTATION OF AMOCO, MACIAS MAY GIVE LESS CON-
SIDERATION TO IMPLICATIONS OF PRECISE TERMS THAN MAY BE DES-
IRABLE IN THE LONG RUN. I BELIEVE IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE
THAT AMOCO REPS MAKE EVERY EFFORT DURING NEGOTIATIONS TO EN-
SURE THAT CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH EXPLORATION ACTIVITIES ARE
TO BE CARRIED OUT AND OBLIGATIONS OF BOTH PARTIES ARE FULLY
UNDERSTOOD BY MACIAS, AND ARE SPELLED OUT IN ACCOMPANYING
LETTERS IF NOT IN AGREEMENT ITSELF.

5. COMMENT: IT IS EVIDENT THAT MACIAS IS VERY ANXIOUS TO CON-
CLUDE AN AGREEMENT WITH A MAJOR COMPANY SUCH AS AMOCO THAT
ENJOYS WORLD-WIDE PRESTIGE. I SUSPECT HE IS ALSO CONVINCED
THAT E.G. HAS IMPORTANT OIL DEPOSITS AND THAT MANY OF HIS IN-
TERNAL PROBLEMS CAN BE SOLVED IF OIL REVENUES START FLOWING.

Es evidente que MACIAS está muy ansioso por concluir un acuerdo con una gran compañia como AMOCO que goza de prestigio a nivel mundial. Sospecho que esta convencido que Guinea Ecuatorial tiene depósitos de petróleo importantes y que muchos de sus problemas internos puede ser resueltos si los ingresos del petróleo comienzan a fluir.

En su impaciencia por tener un acuerdo firmado y confiando en la buena fe y la reputacion de AMOCO, MACIAS puede dar menos consideración a las implicaciones de terminos concretos que pueden ser de importancia considerable a largo plazo. Creo que es de suma importancia que los representantes de AMOCO hagan todos los esfuerzos durante las negociaciones para que las condiciones en que se efectuen las actividades de exploracion y las obligaciones de las dos partes son completamente entendidos por MACIAS y se especifiquen en anexos o cartas de acompañamiento y no en el propio acuerdo.
