According to Sternfield, who as chief of the CIA station in Mexico in 1977 was in the best position to know, "There was absolutely no mention of human rights while I was there. Not one word was spoken about it with my counterparts. It wasn't something that we broached or they broached." | |

Lawrence Melvin Sternfield was a CIA spook who was Chief of Station in several countries.[1][2]
Human rights
According to Sternfield, who as chief of the CIA station in Mexico in 1977 was in the best position to know, "There was absolutely no mention of human rights while I was there. Not one word was spoken about it with my counterparts. It wasn't something that we broached or they broached. The relationship we had with the DFS [the Dirección Federal de Seguridad, Mexico's domestic intelligence service] was about pure intelligence gathering." "After all," Sternfield continued during a phone interview, "this was the height of the Cold War, and our efforts were focused against the Soviet target. Not that we weren't aware that the Mexicans were doing bad things when they picked up people. But we didn't raise that with them."[3]
