MATER MEXICO

Votre tél. 1014

Le Gouvernement français proteste contre une mesure ... d'autant plus grave qu'aux yeux du Gouvernement mexicain elle devrait comporter le transfert définitif de propriété du "MERCPE".

Il demande en tout cas que le Gouvernement mexicain verse immédiatement au compte de la France auprès de la Banque Nationale Suisse une indemnité de réquisition représentant la contre-valeur en francs suisses de 1,500,000 dollars (somme dont fait état votre tél. 101).

Il désire d'autre part recevoir toute précision sur la disposition que compte prendre le Gouvernement mexicain pour le rapatriement de l'équipage du "MERCPE".

Je vous serais obligé d'intervenir dans ce sens et de me faire connaître d'urgence le résultat de votre démarche.
