    The Page 11 affair

    The Talara oil agreement became the subject of a major scandal after Carlos Loret de Mola alleged that a page containing crude-oil pricing terms was missing from the contract. The dispute intensified accusations that the Belaúnde government had conceded too much to the International Petroleum Company and became a key pretext for the October coup. Accounts differed over whether the page existed, was blank, or contained commercially significant information.
