Of the 52 Soviets currently assigned to Mexico City, 22 are identified intelligence officers and 13 probably intelligence officers, i.e. roughly 67% of the total Soviet colony.2.  The case officers have not been divided into separate target groups, with the exception of KGB S & T, s. ce the Station's information is too fragmentary for a realistic breakdown. With the exception of S. S.

As reported in Reference A., Subject and his wife arrived in Mexico City at 0550 hours on 20 March 1966 via Canadian Pacific flight 421 from Buenos Aires. They departed Mexico City at 1300 hours on 21 March 1966 via Cubana flight 465 for havana. Cf. also the mention of their departure from Mexico City in the newspaper clipping forwarded as Attachment A.2. According to LIENVOY, on 19 March 1966 Soviet Vice Consul Valentin Sergeyevich LOGILOV (201-235412, known KGB) made reservations at the Hotel Agnes in Mexico City (frequently used by Soviets) for a couple with a child for the night of 20 March 1966. This reservation was undoubtedly for Subject; however, there has been no other mention of the child. At 0830 on 21 March 1966 [Subject] called the Soviet Embassy from the Hotel Agnes and said he would like to come over to pay [perhaps for the room and the Cubana tickets].3. LICALLA reported seeing Subject at the Soviet Embassy in Mexico City at 1015 hours on 21 March 1966.

# SECRET21 July 1966MEMORANDUM FOR:FROM: Ernesto CHAZARO PeregrmoSUBJECT:1.  Reference le made to your memorandum dated 27 June 1966 and to the Interview with Subject conducted in Veracruz on 7 July 1966 by of your office and a representative of this office. We wish to make the following observations regarding Subject's statements in connection with his encounters with Soviet Embassy Third Secretary, Valentin S. LOGINOV.2.  Regarding Subject's claim to have visited Mexico Ciry on or about 16 May 1966 and to have contacted the Soviet Embassy on or about 18 May 1966, this office has established the fact that a contact as described by Subject did not take place at any time during the period 10 through 30 May 1966,3.  Subject made statements to the effect that he had ret LOGINOV and a second Sovlet at an unknown restauraux at 1800 hours on or about 18 May. He claimed to have talked to these two Soviets for approximately one hour (1. e, until about 1900 hours) after which they left the restaurant, walked to and entered LOGINOY's car, drove to an unknown apartment near the Soviet Embassy, parked the car and entered the apartment and then phoned three call-girls who who arrived within 20 minutes. Following the arrival of the girls Subject excused himself and left the apartment about 1900 or 1930 hours. To our knowledge there is no precedant for the KGB using call-girls for the purpose and in the manner described by SubjectHINNA-2771429 Aug 66SECRET
[104-10173-10104.pdf — page 53]
SECRET-2-4. Subject stated that he believed that the automobile driven by LOGINOV, an automobile that he had seen several times, bore the license number "67," Our records show that no Soviet Embassy official or employee drives an automobile with the number 67 or 76. LOGINOV drives an automobile with Mexico City diplomatic license 19 DA.5. Subject's statements to the effect that LOGINOV despos Ited 50,000,00 Μexican pesos to Subject's account in the Banco de Londres in Veracruz as a "gift... for nothing" and then took the money back when Subject refused it, la not in keeping whh our experlence with regard to KGB modus operandi. Also, Information available to this office indicates that according to established Mexican banking practices it is not possible to set up a checking account without the presence of the owner of the account who must algn signature cards for comparison with the signatures on checks.6. Subject's general vagueness as to daten, times, addresses and locations in connection with his encounters with LOGINOV, In addition to those points cited above, leads us to the conclusion that Subject has labriented a large portion of what he has stated. This office has little doubt that he did meet LOGINOV In Veracruz during early May 1966 In connection with the imlasing Soviet sailor, but we consider his account of contacts with LOGINOV subsequent to this occasion as fabrication.7. In view of the above and in view of Subject's statements on 7 July to the effect that he had absolutely no destre to become Involved with personnel of elther the Soviet or American Embassies and wished to remala completely "neutral, this office is not considering using Subject as an Informant of any kind.SECRET

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD3. November 1965FROM: ORONSKYSUBJECT: LICOWL-1Below is a summary of the noteworthy items from Bubject during meetings with him in September and October.1. During September the meeting site was changed to the streets between Merida and Morel on Puebla street in Colonia Roma. Subject walks along Püobla street and I pick him up in the car and drive elsewhere for the meeting. I attempted to change the time of the meeting as well but Subject does not close his store until just before 2100 hours each day and feels that it would appear odd if he were to close the store at various times of the evening on different days of the week. His wife is not always in the store and he would have to close the store in order to meet me. He closes at 1400 hours on Sundays. I also instructed him to change the speed of the recorder from 1 7/8ths to 3 3/4ths. We have no recorders in the Station that will take a large reel at 1 7/8ths and this extremely slow speed is not necessary.2. During early September Subject commented that there is a new apartment building being constructed on the corner of Gelati and Gereral de los Santos, across the street from the Soviet Embassy. (This is our new basehouse). I took considerable notes on this as though I had never heard of the
[104-10173-10104.pdf — page 62]
place before and asked several questions about it. He said that the owner of the_building is Sr. VILLAGRAN and that VILLAGRAN has the reputation of being an anti-Communist and a loyal Nexican citizen. He said that the building would probably be completed by Nars 1966 and that it will have about six floors. Several Soviets have mentioned to Subject that they would like to rent apartments in the building since it is so close to the Embassy.3. Subject said that ISAYEV had been in his store about the last week in September. (As far as I can tell this is ISAYEV's first visit to Subject's-store.) ISAYEV made a great many anti-U.S. remarks during his visit to the store and blamed the U.S. for most of the world's troubles. At one point he said that the Soviet's made much better cars than the U.S. and that Soviet cars were built like "tanks". Subject laughed at this remark because the thought crossed his mind that only a soldier would like to drive a "tank" and from where Subject was standing at the time he could see the Soviet's new fleet of American Fords and Chevys.4. I again asked Subject why the Soviets had not been visiting his store in the evenings as they had in the past and he insisted that it was because most of his "friends" at the Embassy had returned to the Soviet Union beginning in July and their replacements had not warmed up to him yet.
[104-10173-10104.pdf — page 63]
I asked him if a small fiesta might not help this situation and he said that he thought that it might help. I told him to make plans for a fiesta in honor of Mexican Independence Day and to invite as many of the new Soviets as possible. He said that he would probably give the party on Friday, 17 September. I suggested that he invite Yuriy ANDRIANOV (the GRU chauffeur) first and tell ANDRIANOV to invite several of his friends. At the next meeting with Subject he reported that NIKIFOROV, LOGINOV and KORMUSHKIN were the only Soviets who came to the fiesta/on the 17th. They arrived, had a few drinks, danced to some Russian records which they had brought with them and then left. (All are KGB types). They told Subject that the other Soviets could not attend because they had to attend a Czech Embassy reception that same evening. / I can find no record of such a reception either at the Czech on Polish Embassies and there is no indication on the Soviet lines that they had anything planned for that evening. A Soviet from Cuba arrived on the 17th but we have no idea how many Soviets were at the airport to greet him. I questioned Subject about the Soviets who had appeared at the fiesta and he gave me a little information about them. They visited his store several times in the next few weeks and I showed him photographs of the men and expanded on his previous information. He had the following to say about them (he has previously reported on NIKIFOROV).LOGINOV: Subject said that he believes LOGINOV replaced
[104-10173-10104.pdf — page 64]
NECHIPORENKO (correct). Subject calls him "the Bull" and described him as being vulgar, crude, ill-mannered, short tempered and a tyrant. He is a person who thinks that he is some sort of a "big shot" and when he sits down he spreads his legs and arms and takes up a space big enough for two men. His Spanish is very bad and he smokes "Fiesta" cigarettes. At the fiesta LOGINOV told him that he was from the northern part of the Soviet Union, is married and has children. He claimed to have served in the Red Army.KORMUSHKIN: Subject likes KORMUSHKIN who is friendly, well mannered and outgoing. He speaks good Spanish and told Subject that his wife likes Mexico. Although KORMUSHKIN was wearing glasses in the photo shown to Subject, he commented that he often sees KORMUSHKIN without his glasses. He smokes "Record" cigarettes and Subject calls him "El Jovencito".5. Subject said that ISAYEV had dropped by his store during the week of 18 October and spent some time making fun of the King and Queen who were visiting Mexico at the time. ISAYEV felt that the very existance of a King and Queen in 1965 was silly. He also claimed that the Soviets had discovered the Comet that was then in the sky. (The Comet had actually been discovered by two Japanese and bears their names.) He bragged about the great advances in the Soviet Union in all fields and told Subject with great pride that the ruble was worth more than the dollar. He commented.
[104-10173-10104.pdf — page 65]
that the U.S. was a waring nation while the Soviet Union sought only peace and that the United States would change to something similar to the Soviet system in the near future.6. The rest of the meeting and the next two, were spent discussing Stanislav SILNIKOV and his request that Subject act as "fiador" on an apartment for him as well as supply him with a prostitute. (see IIMMA-27568 of 4 Nov.)7. In addition, Subject said that ANDRIANOV had asked him to get Viktor KALININ some aphrodisiac pills. ANDRIANOV said that they were "for Viktor KALININ in Moscow" but Subject thinks they are "for Yuriy ANDRIANOV in Mexico", Subject said he hasn't the slighest idea where to buy such a thing.8. I told Subject to test the recorder by speaking into the microphones both in the upstairs room as well as in the main part of the store and then to play back the tape. Although RESCIGNO has explained the workings of the recorder to Subject several times, he claimed that he did not know how to do this. I then instructed him to disconnect the recorder and to deliver it to me at 2100 hours on Friday, 5 November. I said that I would test the recorder myself. He asked why RESCIGNO could not come to the store and test it and I told him that RESCIBNO was away. He then asked if RESCIGNO was a Mexican or an American. He said that RESCIGNO speaks Spanish like a Mexican and looks like a Mexican but that he (Subject) is sure that he an American. I told him
[104-10173-10104.pdf — page 66]
that I really didn't know since I had never asked him.I changed the topic of conversation by saying that if he reported that SILNIKOV wanted a girl for this Sunday, I would return the machine to him on Saturday, 6 November. If not, he would get it back at the next regular meeting which I would set on Friday when I meet him.
