The coup was brought about not only by the Communist infiltration into the military but by the Socialists who in the beginning collaborated with the Communists to effect the overthrow. The Socialists received covert financial support from the United States Government through our Central Intelligence Agency, the funds having been channeled through Socialist parties in Western Europe.

He is known to have been a close collaborator of the late Patrice Lumumba in whose memory the Communists named a college (training school for subversion) in the Soviet Union.
