Cuba protests U S ban on sugar meeting delegates
Cuba accused the United States of arbitrary discrimination for blocking a Cuban delegation from an international sugar conference in New Orleans. While the Cuban delegates waited at a hotel near the New Orleans airport, two American jets flew to Havana and emptied their passengers to Puerto Rico after a hijacked 747 from New York was seized by a gunman. Kosygin visited Havana as Cuba refused to recall 15 sugar technicians who had gone to New Orleans uninvited, insisting on their rights despite U S orders to return.
