Berlin: Eastern Bloc Protests over Members of Federal Organisations from West Berlin Participating in Meetings, Exhibitions, Etc

A file containing documents relating to Soviet and Eastern European protests concerning the status of Berlin. Documents in the file describe a series of protests against the inclusion of West Berliners in West German delegations to conferences and other international events; against international events taking place in West Berlin; and against the description of the city in official documentation. The protests cover meetings of the International Telecommunication Union, the World Health Organisation, the World Meteorological Organisation, and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, and other events. Also included in the file are alleged violations of the 1971 Quadripartite Agreement; American and West German rebuttals of a Soviet protest; the "routine" nature of many of the protests; and a means of avoiding such protests employed at certain meetings of the Economic Commission for Europe.
