At that time, the young revolutionary arrived in South America to participate in an international instance in Buenos Aires. It was as part of that tour that had also included before his visit to the United States, Canada, a brief passage through Trinidad and Tobago, Brazil and Argentina, that Castro decided his frantic passage through Uruguay. During the 44 hours that he stayed in the country his schedule was intense: impromptu conference when getting off the plane; Meeting with the Uruguayan chancellor and in the National Council of Government; Television appearance; Visits to sites affected by floods; Speaker at a large public event; And confidential meeting with a student delegation at the hotel where he / she was staying.

El artículo describe la primera visita de Fidel Castro a Uruguay a inicios de mayo de 1959. En aquella oportunidad, el joven revolucionario arribaba a América del Sur para participar de una instancia internacional en Buenos Aires. Fue como parte de ese periplo que también había incluido antes su visita a Estados Unidos, Canadá, un breve pasaje por Trinidad y Tobago, Brasil y Argentina, que Castro decidió su frenético pasaje por Uruguay. Durante las 44 horas que permaneció en el país su agenda fue intensa: conferencia improvisada al bajar del avión; reunión con el canciller uruguayo y en el Consejo Nacional de Gobierno; comparecencia en televisión; visita a los sitios afectados por las inundaciones; orador en un acto público multitudinario; y reunión confidencial con una delegación estudiantil en el hotel donde se hospedaba. Nutrido de fuentes diversas –prensa, información diplomática de varios repositorios, etc.-, el artículo explorará especialmente aquellas consultadas en dependencias del Servicio de Inteligencia y Enlace de la Policía uruguaya, que siguió de cerca lo relacionado a la visita del revolucionario caribeño.
