Russian spies currently in US exceed Cold War record | America is infested with more Russian spies than at any point in history, former intelligence agents have claimed. "I would say there
are a few thousand here," the New York Post quoted Boris Korczak, a former double
agent who worked for the CIA, spying on the KGB from 1973-1980, as saying. "Out
of 1,000 spies, one or two will perform, will get access to our nuclear secrets,"
he added. "The current atmosphere in the US is that we're having a love affair
with Russia, that the Cold War is over, but there are more Russian spies here
now than during the Cold War," said Eugene Poteat, a retired senior CIA operative
who served from 1960-1990. 11 Russian spies were arrested on June 29 in the United
States. Among them was 28-year-old Anna Chapman, daughter of a top Russian envoy.
The paper stated that she was likely schooled by the SVR, Russia's post-KGB intelligence
agency, in the art of seduction. During the Cold War, "the Soviet Union had a
number of schools that trained beautiful women how to lure and satisfy powerful,
rich, American men, sexually and intellectually, they're called 'worm-on-a-hook'
agents, " Korczak added. He also claimed that some of these schools are located
in small towns in the southern part of the country. None appear on a map and they
are exact replicas of American suburbs such as Chevy Chase, Md. just outside Washington,
where the bulk of KGB agents were deployed during Second World War. Both the experts
believe that the Russians are primarily after US technology. "Their own is not
much better than it was during the Cold War and they had to get a permit if you
wanted to buy a computer or a telephone," Poteat said. For this reason, Russian
spies are also heavily deployed in Japan -Technology, technology, technology,"
Korczak added. According to the paper, the experts believe that Britain, France,
Poland and Israel are other high priorities, and the Russians are most interested
in American policy towards Iran and Israel. They also want America 'to break up
into three different countries, to stop existing as a superpower'. |
