This paper analyzes the circumstances that led to a break in diplomatic relations between Yugoslavia and Chile, which began in the fall of 1947 and lasted until they were reestablished in November 1950. The analysis is based on archival material, relevant literature, and contemporary journalism. The events are considered within a bilateral context and the broader international context of the Cold War. Particular attention is given to argumentation on both sides and to the background behind this conflict. The influence of this rupture in Yugoslav–Chilean relations is also analyzed. The second part of the paper will discuss how all of this was presented to the Yugoslav public.
