May 17, 1967	Telegram from Dutch Embassy in Warsaw to Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Regarding North Korean Ambassador's Request to Meet Dutch representative Calkoen informs the Ministry of a request by the North Korean Ambassador to meet with him and other Embassy officials and proposes to ignore it.
September 17, 1965	Letter from Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs to Special Envoy in Bucharest, 'Relationship Netherlands-North Korea' The chief of the Bureau for East Asia and Pacific responds to the Envoy's concerns regarding North Korea by noting that other diplomats have also been courted by North Korean representatives.
August 17, 1965	Letter from Dutch Envoy in Bucharest to Minister of Foreign Affairs, 'Invitation for reception in honor of North Korean National Day' The Envoy has received a North Korean invitation which he did not respond to; only the Greek Ambassador received this invitation as well.
July 24, 1963	Letter from Dutch Embassy, Havana (Boissevain), 24 July 1963 Boissevain reports on Fidel Castro. During a banquet held by the Egyptian ambassador, Castro speaks to Swiss Ambassador Masset of a decision to nationalize the former building of the U.S. embassy, currently in use by the Swiss embassy acting as U.S. representatives. Castro is noted as having "the air of one who is boasting to a trusted friend about how he has crossed an opponent." Boissevain thinks it best to keep on Castro's good side and requests an illustrated work of the Netherlands to be sent as a gesture of goodwill.
July 9, 1963	Cable from Dutch Foreign Minister Joseph Luns, The Hague, to Dutch Embassy, Havana (Boissevain), 9 July 1963 Dutch Foreign Minister Joseph Luns responds to Boissevain's two cables regarding Castro's proposal for an agreement with the United States. Luns is wary of Castro's request to use the Boissevain as the mediator, and urges caution and reserve. He asks Boissevain to keep him updated of any future developments, should Castro make a future proposal.
July 8, 1963	Cable from Dutch Embassy, Havana (Boissevain), 8 July 1963 Boissevain writes in continuation of the previous cable regarding Castro's desire for a mediator in an agreement with the United States. The Swiss or Czech ambassadors are offered as alternatives by Boissevain. Castro also notes that the Cuban debt to the Soviet Union is far to large, although he still wishes to continue revolution, creating this impasse between Cuba and the United States.
July 8, 1963	Cable from Dutch Embassy, Havana (Boissevain), 8 July 1963 Boissevain writes of a conversation Fidel Castro had with his wife, namely about how some ideals cannot translate into reality. Castro is interested in pursuing an agreement of some kind with the United States, and seeks to use Boissevain as the middle man. Boissevain is hesitant about any kind of deal with Castro, and asks for instructions on how to proceed.
March 19, 1963	Letter from Dutch Embassy, Havana (Boissevain), 19 March 1963 Boissevain writes of the continued presence of Russian military and economic advisors in Cuba, which are causes for concern. The ongoing question is for how long they will remain in Cuba and when do they leave. Boissevain says that last week approximately 1,000 advisors left the country, but with some note of resistance. However, the departure for them is a great relief for the average Cuban and Russian alike.
November 7, 1962	Cable from Dutch Embassy, Havana (Boissevain), 7 November 1962 The cable focuses on a report from the German embassy that in several places in Cuba, Soviet weapons are hidden under cement. There is still no progress on the dialogue between Fidel Castro and Anastas Mikoyan.
November 2, 1962	Cable from Dutch Embassy, Washington (Van Roijen), 2 November 1962 The cable concerns a conversation between Dutch Ambassador to the United States van Roijen and Director Ward P. Allen of the State Department's Bureau of Inter-American Regional Political Affairs, regarding further actions of the Organization of American States (OAS) in the aftermath of the Cuban crisis. Allen made note that he had very little information regarding Cuba and how Cuba would fit into future dealings with the OAS.
