Britain would not be the only country affected by a breach of GCHQ security. The Cheltenham facility is part of a four-nation intelligence net that also includes the U.S., Canada and Australia. GCHQ shares its cryptographic expertise with Washington's top-secret National Security Agency (NSA), an organization that gathers intelligence based on electronic eavesdropping. In return, the NSA passes on some of its intelligence and provides technical assistance. Moreover, the U.S. maintains spy bases in Britain whose data are processed at GCHQ, and Cray I, the complicated computer that does most of Cheltenham's decoding...

...harshest criticism of U.S. policy came from Peru and Venezuela, two countries that are involved in tense border disputes of their own. Charging that Washington had disrupted the basis of the O.A.S. and created a North-South breach in the hemisphere, Caracas sent a delegation to Western Europe to plead for an end to the European Community's economic sanctions against Argentina. The sudden surge of nationalism in Caracas raised fears in Guyana, meanwhile, that Venezuela might resort to military action to seize 58,000 sq. mi. of mineral-rich territory that have been the subject of dispute since...
