FROM
CUBA
Suspicious visitor claims to come from U.
S.-based NED
SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Cuba, April 15 (Roberto
García Cabreja, APLO / www.cubanet.org)
- A few dissidents and independent journalists
in Santiago de Cuba received a visit from
a man who said he represented the National
Endowment for Democracy, a U. S. organization
that supports democratic development throughout
the world.
The man, bearing a Cuban passport and documentation
identifying him as affiliated with the NED,
showed up April 9 at the homes of dissident
Alfredo Viñol and his wife, and also
visited me and another independent journalist,
Rosa María Montoya.
The Cuban passport identified the man as
one Robert García, coming from Philadelphia.
Most of his questions had to do with money
supposedly paid by the NED to Cuban dissidents.
The man said he had come to verify that
the funds had been received.
