hand of the east German foreign intelligence agency Portmarnock thirty years the French German production company got there the former spies in Germany in order to make a documentary on the Cold War espionage ring Europe at this gathering basically met Sergei congressional who worked in the Russian intelligence for almost fifty years from nineteen forty four ideal nineteen ninety two in other words because our souls career spanned9/46
from the years of Stalin good the years of yelp Howard Dean tire peering out of the Cold War one can easily imagine how many secrets Congress show was acquainted where in nineteen ninety seven Kongers show is the senior KGB officer in Berlin in the nineteen fifties and the nineteen sixty and David Murphy a senior CIA officer in Berlin during the same time together with the journal10/46
is George Bailey caught off guard a fascinating book under U. S. song here called Warspite games in Berlin under the title battleground Berlin CIA overseas KGB in the Cold War which became something of a spy bestseller soon afterwards according to access the conger from began working on his memoirs contact the big leap to solicit his help basically quit earlier coop dirt that will cut the KGB11/46
the KGB mass was that the Soviet Union Riddick KGB defector people are very happy accepted in the period from two thousand until two thousand six calling your show and basically what the occasionally meet in Brussels where baby live to work on the book project however when the mind this group was ready for publication in two thousand seven the S. we are Russia's foreign intelligence agency changed12/46
its mind and the roof you go allowed the publication surprisingly this was a shattering blow for Congress he died later in this same year at the age of eight you for according to have steam have you received the permission of Congress was family basically decided to go ahead with the publication of the book if you like this thing again the wishes of the S. we are13/46
and so let's take a closer look at the materials that the Russian if that does not want us to know it is revealed by one of its own former top spy masters okay gate Congress what is there to because they're concerned sources and methods perhaps leg in the FDA in my opinion the first chapter of the book contains the most surprising and historically significant revelation in14/46
the entire book Congress show claims that he recruited a U. S. called clerk from the US embassy in Moscow in nineteen forty eight this court clerk from riding enough information to the Soviets Seifert's special is to construct a replica all day U. S. sigh per machine and you read all the secret US military cables to and from the US embassy in other words the star units15/46
are reading the US you have it like an open book in the late nineteen forties and the early nineteen fifty according to calm her strong that this type of method used one of the liver directly to start by at the head of the ministry of state security which was renamed the KGB guy fifty four we've got Abakumov basically speculate that it was precisely this information that16/46
made it clear to Stalin that the U. S. would not attack the Soviet Union if this started decided to assist the north Korean invasion of the south in other words Stalin could confidently stand in there Soviet troops which she did without the fear of the direct U. S. retaliation big big concludes that the one that I think you have to use part did for the outbreak17/46
of the Korean War was this US spy now who was this by Cornershop never revealed his identity indeed the spot I was never identify all that is known at this time is that he's code name was Jack this information was revealed by the Soviet defector I'm not the only goalie in nineteen sixty one but he did not know this prize real name in this chapter however18/46
caught your show describes how he recruited Jack it was the case of the heartbeat for Jack was seeing a Russian girl who was already known to the KGB in other words she might have been one of the so called KGB swallows trained to insure the foreigners are being just that the solid state corner from got hurt to introduce him to Jack and he reported to his19/46
superiors the counter intelligence chief Yevgeny we don't run out and that means if they're Abakumov that Jack's case looked promising if they're now that Jack was greedy and I wanted to get rich quickly because you're so began meeting with yet more frequently and giving him more and more money if first started with general questions and then moved to the specific areas then they KGB want you20/46
to know about Jack answered all the questions and even brought some broken parts of the U. S. cipher machines used in the embassy congressional was soon joined by Nietzsche a cypress specialties working for the ministry of state security soon the Saudi exclude because Jack erect we got all of this cipher machine and begin reading all the U. S. secret message by this time Jack was even21/46
fifty thousand dollars and before he left the Soviet Union was rewarded by them in you about cool though we did this you know fifty thousand this was an enormous amount of money for those days it is the equivalent of more than one million dollars a day obviously this was a huge success were disarmed it intelligence even Congress show benefited from this success here you see an22/46
apartment from the government however due to join in that ministry was cut short by another Stalin's purge all he's real and imagined enemies he ordered the arrest of W. about cool moe and that she'd be done right now I buckle no go ahead of the controversy out and powerful wartime smash organization death to the surprise never got out of prison ally even call their shot had23/46
to keep a low profile until sometime after Stalin's death in nineteen fifty three you had this shop they can be yeah them to reestablish the contact me Jack if you like this day but was not successful as I said before the identity of Jack though he must have passed away years ago is still a secret I'm not there were any existing chapter in the book each24/46
chapter five it it's Cornershop describes his first foreign intelligence assignment in Great Britain he reports that he was sent to London as I know I know face working under the cover over cultural attache in the Soviet embassy this thought it have had a great deal of success penetrating the British intelligence starting with the Cambridge five including Kim Philby in the nineteen thirties however by the early25/46
nineteen fifties there covert network started showing a lot of strain guy Burgess and Donald mac team were exposed and had to escape to Moscow well I feel be was demoted and put under surveillance obviously it was not an easy guy for Congress he had a lot of challenges to deal with he claims that he was put in charge up Harry huffed and who was spying for26/46
the Soviets in the British admiral in addition because there are so many more money so the British Communist Party chief Sherri Polly for the publication of a communist newspaper and other expenses he says that the psalmist content from ten thousand to twenty thousand dollars and one delivered twice a year that's close to half a million dollars a year according to today's exchange rate not that bad27/46
stops at the from the Soviets dont you agree most importantly Kong Herschel reports that two while in London he kept in touch with George Blake who is the real name was George Beth are high level British diplomat who was recruited to work for the Soviets while he was held in prison by the north Koreans during the Korean War the description of these meetings with Blake sound28/46
like this stuff strayed from the spy movies brash bass is brief encounters on Buffy's and the movie theater I'm going to go on your show Blake give him the plans for the construction of the secret US and UK underground tunnels for eavesdropping on the Soviet military communications near Berlin and Vienna in other words the KGB know about the tunnels even before they were constructed however in29/46
order not to expose Blake the Soviet military Wellstone only in general terms especially regarding that yeah and the KGB rarely use the tap phones to pass on this information for a long time either this yeah I know the MI six you know that their secret channel was it open book for the KGB in nineteen sixty one Blake was uncovered as the Soviets by by the Polish30/46
defector Michael going yes you it turned out that it was the CIA's Benny Billy who aren't covered Blake was arrested by the British authorities and thanked us though forty two years in prison however in nineteen sixty six he was able to escape from Britain into East Germany where he met with Congress over again Blake was transported to Moscow where he lives through this day on the31/46
kid you me bench he is ninety four years old another interesting chapter of the book is chapter ten in the big league this guy says they can Jamie's links to them not the underground however in this chapter conjure show does not offer much in the way of any he only report certain fleeting conversations that he had in the late nineteen fifties when the long time chief32/46
of the KGB even eagles in western Europe Aleksander coracle because they're so claims that in nineteen forty five Soviet forces that please apap almost smash arrested they get stopped what she Heinrich Mueller and use him in the post war period to infiltrate the western ex Nazi underground according to this account the KGB had its own people at the Nazi community in Latin America as well as33/46
within the network %HESITATION Reinhard Gehlen who became the first jeep all of the west German intelligence agents would that be and the this is yet another thing that gave the KGB and the important advantage all over the western intelligence community interestingly big make claims that the books purporting that the US forces arrested Mueller and medium cooperate with the US navy during that exists agenda are based34/46
on falsified accounts I have been financed by the Soviet government specifically he mentions the book by Gregory Douglas whose real name according to baby you speaker stall you die because do you stop what you the nineteen forty eight interrogation all high and reach your it can be found on the internet in contrast basically pray that their conduct and Mueller okay presented in the book by his35/46
friend the vector of French you down just officer yeah Debbie them out S. entitled I'm not sure people who protected garment and get stopped all of Mueller after nineteen forty five published in two thousand flat in this book they can you give me and not the CI is described as the main topic master of the ex Nazi intelligence officers in the post war Europe obviously this36/46
is something that does not square with you okay so account of the Soviet and Russian governments relations toward the defeat of Nazi perhaps this is the one of the reasons why did the Russian intelligence did not give its permission for the publication of Congress Sean's memoirs lastly big league the bones several chapters of the book conger shows that comes off the song here deception games no37/46
one in the KGB terminology as active measures for many years Kongers shop was in the top leadership of the KGB section eight in charge of designing and implementing these measures initially he worked under their command Aug Yvonne ions a veteran intelligence officer who at one time was the KGB resident you pass an extremely skilled who operate there I got ya had many highly placed a dozen38/46
sources most of whom were never discovered I'm going to come under sharp active measures I different from DC information because that any information could be true but very embarrassing for the other side he claims that the main goal of the Soviet active measures was the core distrust conflict among the western allies I'm pleased five political and social divisions to break up NATO and to get the39/46
US military out the western Europe fourteenth knows this song yet made efforts to discredit the US strategic air command personnel and were successful in discrediting that NATO secretary general Jones if loans who was subsequently forced to retire the KGB also target various west German and NATO military thinkers with the first talk backs about their past according to Cahners shop they can he be Iran hundreds of40/46
operations off this guy every year typically you sympathizers and not paid agents in order to make it employs more difficult to trace and also make it easier to maintain plausible deniability one of its most frequent activities was planting propaganda are your goals in the western newspapers in addition many journalists in the state run news agency knowest the worked under its supervision moreover according to conjure shop41/46
that K. G. B. had excellent forging sections and god spake any document signature or passport sometimes they can give me would be one try to push its opponents in the doorway will alliance %HESITATION research congressional claims that such was the focus on parapsychology psychics and remote viewing which we know now beyond any doubt that both the CIA and the D. I yeah there apparently they were42/46
fooled by the KGB active measures yeah they're going to look longer shop even though the KGB had they significant intelligence advantage all over the yeah a so I think you know fell apart you do what he calls the major strategic miscalculations by the song vehicle either me higher corporate job these reforms were much too hasty and these organize any stand over reforming the system let Louise43/46
class because there are some states that you re on drop all one of the Gorbachev us pre this and the long time chief of the KGB without a doubt a much better job had he not that come to a fatal illness you nineteen eighty four as far as his own longtime service in the KGB because they are sourced they he did all he did not for44/46
the Communist Party or the Soviet economic model but for Russia he pauses patriotism and the service to the motherland as he's only motivations however it appears that the contemporary Russian intelligence community this agrees and that had it not been for the X. yeah eighth basically conger shows biography and the life long it that leads us exploit would have remained calm politically are known to the public45/46
