Joe Biden’s administration declassified documents on Kennedy assassination

Joe Biden’s administration has declassified nearly 1,500. subsequent documents related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. They show that the perpetrator contacted the KGB two months before the execution of John F. Kennedy.

The decision to publish some of the archives came after President Biden postponed publication in October, citing security concerns and slowdowns due to the pandemic. The entire archive was slated to be released in 2017, but then-President Trump also released only a portion of the files, citing the opinion of service officials, who said that “some information should remain hidden for reasons of national security, law. law enforcement and foreign affairs “.

So far, nothing has been found in the new package of documents that could refute the official conclusions of the Warren Commission that President Kennedy’s assassin, sympathetic to the communists Lee Harvey Oswald, acted alone. However, they include, among other things, negotiating there with Mexican diplomats, one of whom, according to the CIA, was “a member of the KGB murder investigation team.”

The documents disclosed include reports that the day after Kennedy was gunned down in Atashat by the US Navy in Canberra, a man called who identified himself as a Polish chauffeur from the Soviet embassy in Australia. He said that the assassination was probably financed by the Soviet government.

The document also mentions a similar anonymous telephone, made a year before the attack, in which a whistleblower said the States of the Iron Curtain were offering 100,000 people. dollars for the assassination of John F. Kennedy. Ultimately it turned out that the “Polish driver” was probably “crazy”, incl. due to the absence in the register of Polish employees of the Soviet embassy.

The archives also contain reports of meetings of Kennedy’s assassin Lee Harvey Oswald with communist activists in Mexico and information about his meeting with the consul from the USSR, Valery Kostikov, who was a KGB agent. The meeting was known in advance, but its circumstances remained unknown. It follows from the disclosed documents that the meeting between Oswald and Kostikov took place at the USSR embassy two months before the assassination of Kennedy and was initiated by Oswald.

Castro threatened the United States with reprisals

Another leaked CIA document draws attention to Fidel Castro’s interview with the PA, ignored by investigators and the Warren Commission, in which the Cuban dictator threatened the US with retaliation for attempted attacks on Cuban officials, including himself. A separate document summarizes years of unsuccessful attempts by the CIA to kill Castro with botulinum pills. The agency tried to carry out the attack using Cuban gangsters and their connections.

Despite declassification, more than 90 percent. Of all the documents related to the attack on Kennedy, secret or partially secret, there are still more than 10,000 of them. Biden gave agencies a deadline until December 15, 2022 to carefully examine the remaining files and declassify those for which there are no serious contraindications.
