As head of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) during the early Cold War, he oversaw the 1953 Iranian coup d'état, the 1954 Guatemalan coup d'état, the Lockheed U-2 aircraft program, the Project MKUltra mind control program and the Bay of Pigs Invasion. He was dismissed by John F. Kennedy over the latter fiasco. Dulles was one of the members of the Warren Commission investigating the assassination of John F. Kennedy. Between his stints of government service, Dulles was a corporate lawyer and partner at Sullivan & Cromwell. His older brother, John Foster Dulles, was the Secretary of State during the Eisenhower Administration and is the namesake of Dulles Airport.[1] Director of Central Intelligence In office Contents February 26, 1953 – November 29, 1961 Early life and family President Dwight Eisenhower John F.

  • APPENDIX .A. Note on the Present Position of the Munich Agreement of 29 September 1938
    APPENDIX .A. Note on the Present Position of the Munich Agreement of 29 September 1938 THE Munich Agreement, concluded between Germany, the United Kingdom, France and Italy for the cession of the Sudeten German territory by Czecho­ slovakia, although officially dated 29 September 1938, was in reality signed in the small hours of the morning of 30 September. l To it was annexed a declaration by the British and French Governments guaranteeing the new boundaries of the Czechoslovak state against unprovoked aggression. Germany and Italy also agreed to give a similar guarantee to Czechoslovakia 'when the question of the Polish and Hungarian minorities in Czechoslovakia had been settled'. It was further declared that the problems of these minorities in Czechoslovakia, if not settled within three months by agreement between the respective Governments, 'shall form the subject of another meeting of the Heads of the Governments of the four Powers here present'. Because of its nature, the Munich Agreement was not subject to the usual forms of ratification, and no provision for such procedure was included in its text. Parliamentary approval was accorded to Mr Chamberlain and to M. Daladier, on 6 and 5 October respectively, by means of votes of confidence but by the time these had been given in the House of Commons and the Chamber of Deputies the terms of the Munich Agreement were already a fait accompli. On 2 November 1938 the German and Italian Foreign Ministers, Ribben­ trop and Ciano, handed down the First Vienna Award, which, without consultation with, or reference to, the British and French Governments, adjudicated the fate of the Polish and Hungarian minorities in Czechoslovakia, in violation of the annexe to the Munich Agreement.2 The structure set up by the Munich Agreement was destroyed on 15 March 1939 when Hitler proclaimed that 'Czechoslovakia has ceased to exist'.

  • John Foster Dulles, Illness, Masculinity and U.S. Foreign Relations, 1953-1961 After Several Difficult Years in Anglo-American R
    John Foster Dulles, Illness, Masculinity and U.S. Foreign Relations, 1953-1961 After several difficult years in Anglo-American relations following the fall-out over the Suez Crisis in 1956, work to cultivate a more harmonious relationship was well underway by 1959 as British officials adjusted to the reality of their international situation and as U.S. officials sought to shore-up a relationship with an ally whose strategic importance had been reinforced in the wake of the Soviet launch of Sputnik in 1957.1 Accordingly, on March 20 1959, British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan journeyed to Washington D.C. for a series of important meetings with the Dwight D. Eisenhower administration. With Macmillan having recently played a key role in attempts to temper a mounting crisis over Berlin, the focus was very much on rapprochement. As the New York Times editorialised on the eve of Macmillan’s visit: ‘It is a commonplace of contemporary politics that Britain and the United States are inseparable allies.’2 The following day, Macmillan met with President Eisenhower at the White House and the two men travelled together to the Walter Reed Naval Hospital just outside Washington. Upon arrival they took the private elevator up to the presidential suite where they were due to meet with Eisenhower’s secretary of state, John Foster Dulles, who had been diagnosed with a recurrence of the highly aggressive form of cancer that he had previously fought off in 1956. The prognosis this time was much less hopeful; both Dulles and Macmillan knew that this was likely to be the last time they would see one another.3 The meeting that followed, however, did not adhere to the rapprochement agenda.
