Summary/Abstract: This paper is a historical contribution regarding the first attempt of accreditation of Ion Mihai Pacepa as officer in diplomacy at the Romanian Embassy in Italy during 1955-1956. The young officer of the Romanian intelligence services was trained and ready to „work” in the embassy from Italy and Germany. But this project wasn’t realised and Pacepa made a short visit in Italy only after the invasion of Czechoslovakia by the Warsaw Treaty’s troops in 1968. The Appendix presents the original texts of two telespressos of the Italian Embassy in Bucharest regarding the request of the Ion Mihai Pacepa for a visa permit.
