I am looking for a kind of letter.... Che is in Congo at the time, I believe. Fidel aska/strongly advices Che to come back to Cuba, to use the facilities as he (Che) pleases. So he can train guerilla forces for Bolivia.

He mentions that he understands that he feels obliged not to return to Cuba and discredit his word, but insist he come to Cuba.

I need this letter.... I want a copy of it.


Hope you can help me.

Thanks.

I'm re-reading "The African Dream- The revolutionary diaries of Che Guevara from Congo" , in which the letter is published, but it's a translation so I can't help you with a phrase search. I can tell you that it was written in June 1966 and Fidel adresses Che as "Ramon" as a codename. Shouldn't be too hard to find ;)

Thank you. I did a search inside the book, but I couldn't find it. Strangely enough.

Perhaps you could tell me on what pages they are? I guess it is roughly on the same pages, despite it being a translation (I have the English version).

Your help is highly appreciated :)

It's in the introduction written by Aleida March, Che's daughter.
