bf XX- \-:S7:Q./ - ' \ •L CHIEFS OF STATE AND CABINET MEMBERS OF FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS A 68-22 (Supersedes A 68—21) December 1968 ^,5 Digitized by the Internet Archive 2016 in https://archive.org/details/chiefsofstatecab6822wash PREFACE This directory identifying chiefs of state and cabinet members of foreign governments was prepared by the Central Reference Service. It is based upon information current as of the publication date. Completely revised editions are issued each month. Upon being replaced the obsolete directories should be destroyed. Since it is intended primarily as a reference aid this publica- tion includes as many governments of the world as is considered practicable, some of them not yet fully independent and others not officially recognized by the United States. Regimes with which there are no diplomatic exchanges are indicated by the initials “NDE.” For the convenience of the user, a key to abbreviations is in- cluded. Governments are listed in alphabetical order according to the most commonly used version of each country’s name. Official country designations are resorted to only when necessary to avoid confusion.
