The KGB and Cuban Government had a strong interference in Chile during the government of Salvador Allende. The KGB had a "Department D" of disinformation destined to fabricate lies around the world to favor communism. On one occasion, they even falsified an edition of Newsweek magazine to be distributed in Asia and Africa, in 1963. An article in it about John Kennedy had been completely replaced by an opposite one, supporting the Soviet interest.
In addition, Chile had become a Marxist state in ideological and economic terms, and that from a strategic perspective it had become an important base for Soviet and Cuban subversive operations, including terrorism for all of Latin America. The KGB recruited members for terrorist training courses. Young contemporary Chilean authors have remarked on the great anti-Chilean slogans created by the KGB which made Chile, in practice, the only country prosecuted by the international community.
