A statement to the DPRK Embassy about a series of incidents that have soured relations between Korean authorities and Soviet embassy staff. Over the course of four months, DPRK authorities have detained Soviet diplomats traveling on official business and denied Soviet merchant vessels access to Korean ports for unclear reasons. The Ministry points out that the DPRK in these incidents violated the two countries’ agreement on visa-free travel for official matters, and asks that DPRK takes measures to ensure that similar events will not occur in the future."Statement from the USSR Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the DPRK Embassy in Moscow," December 18, 1970, History and Public Policy Program Digital Archive, RGANI, Fond 3, Opis 72, Delo 395, Listy 31-32.
