Description
Volume V for 1949 covers Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union, and the tone is one of decay. Trade curbs and air policy set the regional frame. Human rights clauses in the peace treaties gave Washington a cause it pressed in vain.
Bulgaria moves toward a full break, and ties with Prague worsen month by month. Finland's freedom still draws care. Spy cases, the AMTORG listing, and ship returns fill the Soviet block. Yugoslavia, now aided by the West, closes the volume. The cables read as a ledger of lost ground.
