Nixon ordered Helms to get rid of Allende
The Atlantic magazine reports Seymour Hersh says former CIA chief Helms called Nixon’s order to assassinate Allende “nonsense” while noting Helms believed Nixon meant to act against Allende in 1970. The piece cites a Sept 15 Oval Office meeting with Mitchell Kissinger and Helms and claims Nixon gave a blank check to move against Allende without informing others. Allende, elected in 1970, was toppled in a 1973 coup amid a military government alleging Allende died by own hand.
