Russian Spanish Trade Talks Echo Stalin Hitler Pact
Paris reports trade negotiations in Madrid between Soviet Russia and Spain resembled the 1939 Stalin Hitler pact in tone and aims. Moscow named Vigdor as U S S R spokesman in Madrid and CAMPSA directors as Spain's officials with Senor Sangroniz cited. Talks were exploratory, focusing on economics but touching repatriation of rebel nationals and political issues. Russia sought pyrites shoes textiles and mercury and requested permission for Soviet ships to fly the Soviet flag in ports in Morocco and beyond.

Soviet Spanish talks over repatriation and trade stalls
Negotiations between Moscow and Madrid on repatriating ex-Soviet citizens and deserters in Spain, and on a Soviet Spanish trade accord, began in Zurich in 1946 and stalled in 1947. The plan included using North African ports, trading via Morocco, and repatriating Franco’s Blue Brigade survivors and anti Franco Republicans, with Franco hoping UN access and US support.
