Documents

October 1, 1957	Journal of Soviet Ambassador to the DPRK A.M. Puzanov for 1 October 1957 Kim Il Sung reports that a Norh Korean delegation is "going to Moscow with great eagerness" and reveals that a KWP Central Committee Plenum will be convened in October 1957.
November 13, 1957	From the Journal of A. M. Puzanov, Record of a Conversation with Kim Il Sung Kim Il Sung describes a recent meeting with Mao Zedong, Peng Dehuai's "interference in the internal affairs" of the KWP, and his invitation for Mao to visit the DPRK, among other topics.
December 21, 1974	Record of a Meeting between Kim Il Sung and L. Rinchin Kim Il Sung and the MPR Foreign Minister comrade L. Rinchin have a conversation regarding North Korean-Mongolian relations, their economic conditions and policies, and Korean reunification.
October 30, 1974	Letter from Dutch Embassy in Beijing to Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 'Trade Relations with North Korea' The Ambassador relates the highly negative experience of a Dutch business representative who recently traveled to Pyongyang on the request of a Dutch commercial delegation already there. The North Korean hosts were offensive in their manner, attempted to play the different representatives against each other, and made highly dubious proposals and demands, including that 50 cars be donated to state corporations as gifts.
June 18, 1971	Memorandum of Conversation of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 'British inquiry about North Korean activities in the Netherlands' Memorizes a visit by the British Third Secretary of the Embassy. Having heard that North Korea was considering establishing a trade mission in the United Kingdom, the British were looking for information on similar initiatives elsewhere. The Ministry described the unsuccessful attempt a few years earlier, which was by now a thing of the past.
December 18, 1969	Internal Memorandum of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 'Trade relations with North Korea' The Netherlands Council for Trade Promotion decides not to reciprocate a visit to North Korea for the time being.
October 28, 1969	Internal Memorandum of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 'Stay of North Korean businessmen' A memorandum notes that the proposal to allow a number of North Korean business representatives temporary yet effectively indefinite stay would require permission from the Justice Department, and proposes to initiate contact to this effect.
October 17, 1969	Internal Memorandum of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 'Trade relations with North Korea' The East Asia Department agrees with Foreign Economic Relations that no North Korean trade mission in the Netherlands should be established, but proposes instead that a number of representatives be allowed temporary stay to build up commercial contacts instead.
October 15, 1969	Internal Memorandum of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 'Establishment of a North Korean Trade Mission in the Netherlands' The director-general of the Department for Foreign Economic Relations advises against the establishment of a North Korean trade mission in the Netherlands: while the volume of trade with the two Koreas is roughly equal, such a mission would do great harm to commercial interests in South Korea, particularly VMF and Shell.
October 10, 1969	Memorandum of Conversation of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 'Trade relations with North Korea' Recalls a conversation with Heldring of the Netherlands Council for Trade Promotion, during which Heldring said he had received word from the North Koreans that they were willing to sign the proposed agreement even though they kept urging the establishment of a permanent trade mission. Heldring pointed out such a mission had recently been established in Switzerland and similar contacts were ongoing in the Scandinavian countries. The Dutch company VMF had, however, by now changed to a much more cautious position because of its South Korean interests. Heldring was putting of a reciprocal visit to North Korea until he knew the Ministry's position.
