Sumario:This text contains two parts. The most important one is the second, where a transcription is made of a selection of the last confidential report sent by Chilean Ambassador Federico Klein Reidel to his Ministry of Foreign Affairs before leaving his diplomatic post in Guatemala after the coup d’etat that overthrew Guatemala’s President Jacobo Arbenz Guzmán in June 1954. Six decades after those events took place, this document —which has not been published up to the present— remains outstanding. Especially note- worthy, among other aspects, is the informed content and full force of the interpretations stamped within it by this diplomat. At the end, the text is accompanied by a brief presentation by its author and a description of the circumstances under which it was conceived.
