Click on each folder to see a more detailed description and a direct link to the repository.image_header2025-03-17T19:07:20-07:00Folder 1 (30 documents) - Oct. 1964 - July 1966 Contains telegrams and notes between Washington and the US Embassy in Belgrade from Oct. 1964 - July 1966 with broad themes of US-Yugoslavia relations defined by the Non-Aligned movement, a shifting USSR government after Kruschev, and US actions in Vietnam.
Folder 2 (54 documents) - November 1963 - April 1966 Contains telegrams and notes that highlight US-Yugoslavia relations after the Kennedy assassination and amidst Yugoslav disapproval of US actions in Vietnam. These documents express a strain to uphold US aid to Yugoslavia to deter dependence on the Soviet Union and maintain a relationship that allows the US to see the inner workings of the non-alignment movement.
Folder 3 (29 documents) - March 1963 - Nov 1966 Contains intelligence cables and telegrams covering Yugoslavia’s stance on Vietnam considering members of the non-aligned movement, the Soviet Union, and China – while attempting to improve relations with the US. The folder concludes with Department of State documentation of ambassadorial conversations and foreign assistance settlements.
Folder 4 (36 documents) - August 1965 - June 1966 Contains memorandums, notes, and letters on US-Yugoslavia bilateral relations that evolved with grand questions of trade, economic assistance, and the Vietnam War. This folder is also punctuated with short notes and briefings for various dignitaries that range from discussions of points of leverage to broad summaries of all US-Yugoslavia relations.
Folder 5 (21 documents) - February 1964 - November 1965 Contains memorandums and special reports that assess Yugoslavia’s relations with the greater communist world and where the U.S. fits into this narrative. These documents have a particular focus on potential financial assistance packages from the U.S. to Yugoslavia and their implications for Yugoslavia’s position on Vietnam and its defense capabilities.
