Mexico ex-official calls Cuba spy story ‘false’ - Jorge Castaneda says a newspaper’s report that he once served as an agent of Havana is “entirely made up.”

Former Mexican Foreign Secretary Jorge Castaneda on Tuesday denied a newspaper’s allegations that he had served as a Cuban spy for at least three years beginning in the late 1970s.

The allegations appeared Monday in a front-page story in the Mexico City daily El Universal headlined “From Traitor of the Fatherland to Chancellor.”

“Obviously, the story is categorically false,” Castaneda said in a telephone interview. “It’s entirely made up.”"*
