Svetlana flew in from Switzerland, where she had spent six weeks in secretive seclusion and "hard thinking" after having decided to remain in the West while on a visit to India (TIME, March 24). Although she entered the U.S. on a tourist visa that expires June 6, it was plain that the formalities of her entrance were unimportant and that she could stay in the U.S. as long as she wished. The process of getting her to the U.S. was a diplomatic nightmare. From the moment she appeared at the U.S. Embassy in New Delhi seven weeks ago and asked...

...when it reads her extraordinary statement about why she left Russia (see box). To demonstrate its innocence of any foul play, Washington decided that Svetlana could not come directly to the U.S., instead found temporary refuge for her in Switzerland. Sensitive to Russian pressures, the Swiss granted her a visa only on the condition that she stay out of sight and do nothing that could be interpreted as a slam at the Soviet Union. Although Svetlana is not a political person ("I hate politics," she told an Indian friend), she obviously could not remain in that condition indefinitely. She decided...

...today is the best bargain in Europe. For the past six years, tourism has been increasing at the staggering rate of 25% a year: 15 million visited there last year, and in 1967 there will be even more, largely because Yugoslavia has flung open its borders with a no-visa-required policy for everyone. Excellent hotels have sprung up along the Dalmatian coast, especially at Split and Dubrovnik.

...pictures, the half country that is politically retrograde but economically trying hard to progress. The story was written by David B. Tinnin and edited by Edward Jamieson. They drew on extensive on-the-scene accounts from Bonn Bureau Chief Herman Nickel, who had to wait three months for his visa but finally got it, plus background reports from the Bonn bureau's Gisela Bolte and Burton Pines...

...that the U.S. had turned down Stalin's daughter Svetlana, 41, when she showed up at the U.S. embassy in New Delhi. Last week, while Svetlana remained in hiding in Switzerland, the State Department clarified its position somewhat by reporting that it had in fact issued her a visa to come to the U.S.; the question of whether she will eventually be granted asylum has been left open. However that turns out, the Kremlin is enraged at the Soviet-embassy people in New Delhi who failed to prevent the defection, is calling some of them home for an explanation...
