Senator Russell. Has any official of the Russian Government communicated with you since this great tragedy?*
*Mrs. Oswald. No; no one ever communicated with me from the Soviet Embassy or any other representative of the Soviet Government, and I felt rather bad about it, because there I was—all alone in a strange country and I did not receive any encouragement from anyone. They didn't approach me even as a show of interest in my well-being.
Senator Russell. You didn't even hear from them with reference to your application for visas to return to Russia, although you had heard from them prior to the time Lee was killed?* **
*Mrs. Oswald. Not after Lee was killed.
Senator Russell. Now, if I've understood it from reading your testimony, Mrs. Oswald, Lee went to Mexico from New Orleans a day or two after Mrs. Paine brought you back to Texas, is that right?
*Mrs. Oswald. I do not know definitely, but I believe Mrs. Paine and I left one day before he went to Mexico.
Senator Russell. He had talked to you about going to Mexico, had he not?*
*Mrs. Oswald. Yes; he had told me he was going to Mexico.
Senator Russell. And he had told you that he intended to visit the Russian Embassy and the Cuban consulate while he was there?
Mrs. Oswald. Yes.
