ACTION. REQUESTED: NONE, FYI.2. IN A CONVERSATION AFTER TENNIS ON 8 MARCH 1995, C/O BAECHLER SOUGHT TO DRAW OUT EGYPTIAN FIRST SECRETARY MURTADA ALI MUHAMMAD ((LASHIN)) ON HIS FAMILY SITUATION AND CAREER ASPIRATIONS. IN RECENT DAYS LASHIN'S WIFE HAS HAD ANOTHER ULCER/COLITIS ATTACK, BUT SHE AND LASHIN HAVE NOT YET MADE A FINAL DECISION ON WHETHER TO GO TO TEXAS FOR A COMPLETE PHYSICAL. LASHIN'S WIFE HAS PREVIOUSLY RUN THE MEDICAL GAMUT IN BANGKOK: ENDOSCOPY, BARIUM X-RAYS, EVEN A CAT-SCAN. LASHIN OBSERVED THAT HIS WIFE IS VERY CLOSE TO HER MOTHER AND TO HER BROTHERS AND SISTERS, AND IN CAIRO HER HEALTH TENDS TO BE BETTER BECAUSE HER MENTAL STATE IS BETTER. LASHIN'S CONCERN WITH HER WELL-BEING IS FORCING HIM TO CONSIDER RETURNING TO CAIRO BEFORE THE END OF 1995. HIS THINKING IS ALSO COLORED BY A DISLIKE AND LACK OF RESPECT FOR HIS AMBASSADOR.3. LASHIN HAS NOT YET DISPLAYED ANY FINANCIAL SUSCEPTIBILITIES. HE NOTED THAT HE OWNS A FLAT IN THE GENERAL NEIGHBORHOOD OF THE U.S. AMBASSADOR'S RESIDENCE IN CAIRO AND THAT SEVERAL YEARS AGO HE BUILT A VILLA WITH SWIMMING POOL IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA NEAR THE PYRAMIDS. HE NOTED THAT UPON HIS RETURN HE WOULD LIKELY STAY IN THE FLAT DURING THE WEEK, FOR IT IS NOT SUCH.A LONG COMMUTE TO HIS FOREIGN MINISTRY. HE WOULD SPEND THE WEEKENDS AND SUMMERS AT THE VILLA. LASHIN ALSO NOTED THAT BECAUSE CAIRO IS NOT A PLEASANT PLACE TO LIVE, HE AND HIS FAMILY WOULD TAKE EVERYSECRET

# SECRETMHFNO: 95-9691281 SENSIND: RYBAT PAGE: 2OPPORTUNITY TO TRAVEL TO ALEXANDRIA OR OTHER RESORT AREAS ON THE WEEKENDS. LASHIN'S FAVORITE PASTIME SEEMS TO BE LYING ON THE BEACH. HIS DESCRIPTION OF HIS LIFESTYLE IN EGYPT IS NOT THAT OF A CIVIL SERVANT WHO MUST DEPEND ON HIS SALARY AS THE SOLE SOURCE OF INCOME.4. C/O RAISED THE TERRORIST KILLING OF U.S. DIPLOMATIC PERSONNEL IN KARACHI ON 8 MARCH TO GAUGE LASHIN'S RESPONSE. AFTER LAUNCHING INTO A HOMILY ABOUT HOW THE PROPHET HAD CALLED FOR MERCY AND DECENCY BY WARRIORS IN THE TREATMENT OF CIVILIANS, LASHIN WENT ON TO SPIN A SERIES OF TYPICALLY PARANOID ARAB CONSPIRACY THEORIES. HE SUGGESTED THAT THE *<ASSASSINATIONS>OF<JFK>AND ANWAR ((SADAT))* WERE SOMEHOW THE THE WORK OF THE ISRAELIS, WHO ALWAYS SOUGHT TO DISRUPT GOOD RELATIONS BETWEEN THE U.S. AND EGYPT. HE SUGGESTED THAT THE ISRAELIS LIKED TO "PLAY THE FUNDAMENTALIST CARD" WHENEVER PRESSURES MOUNTED ON THEM TO MAKE CONCESSIONS, AND HE ARGUED THAT THE ISRAELI MOSSAD HAD BEEN BEHIND TERRORIST ACTS IN EGYPT AS FAR BACK AS THE 1950'S.5. BIOGRAPHIC MISCELLANY: LASHIN'S BROTHER IS THE EGYPTIAN AMBASSADOR IN ECUADOR. FOUR OF HIS BROTHERS-IN-LAW HAVE SPENT CONSIDERABLE TIME IN THE U.S. TWO REMAINED. TWO RETURNED TO CAIRO, WHERE THEY ARE NOT HAPPY. HOWEVER, THEY ARE RELUCTANT TO RETURN TO THE U.S., WHERE THE PACE WAS TOO STRESSFUL FOR THEM. LASHIN RECALLED THAT HIS BROTHER HAD ADVISED HIM NOT TO JOIN THE FOREIGN SERVICE, FOR IT WAS NOT A PARTICULARLY REWARDING CAREER. LASHIN NOW SEEMS TO REGRET THAT HE FAILED TO TAKE HIS BROTHER'S ADVICE. HE SAID THAT HE HAD THE CHANCE TO PURSUE AN ACADEMIC CAREER AS A PROFESSOR OF PHYSIOLOGY, AFTER HAVING SERVED AS AN ARMY DOCTOR FOR TWO YEARS. HOWEVER, HE DECIDED AGAINST PURSUING MEDICINE, FOR HE FELT AT THE TIME THAT THE MEDICAL FACILITIES AND SYSTEM IN EGYPT WERE TOO BACKWARD. NOW HE BELIEVES THAT IT IS TOO LATE FOR HIM TO RETURN TO MEDICINE. LASHIN IS AN OBSERVANT AND APPARENTLY BELIEVING MUSLIM, AND THIS YEAR HE CONTINUED HIS RAMADAN FAST FOR AN ADDITIONAL SIX DAYS.6. LASHIN IS HARDLY A RISING STAR. HOWEVER, OTHER THAN A DISLIKE FOR HIS AMBASSADOR, HE HAS NOT DISPLAYED ANY PERCEPTIBLE UNHAPPINESS WITH THE WAY IN WHICH HE HAS BEEN TREATED BY HIS MINISTRY. IN FUTURE SESSIONS WITH LASHIN THE C/O WILL TRY TO DETERMINE WHETHER HE POSSESSES ANY MANIPULABLE DISGRUNTLEMENT OVER THE MODEST PROGRESS OF HIS CAREER, WHETHER HE HAS ANY WELL-PLACED PATRONS WITHIN HIS MINISTRY, AND WHETHER HE HAS ANY PROSPECTS FOR AN ASSIGNMENT WITH GOOD FI ACCESS UPON HIS RETURN TO CAIRO. THE C/O WILL ALSO SEEK TO DRAW HIM OUT ON HIS CONTACTS WITHIN THE LOCAL DIPLOMATIC COMMUNITY, ESPECIALLY AMONG CHINESE, RUSSIANS, INDIANS, AND PAKISTANIS. THE C/O WILL KEEP IN THE BACK OF HIS MIND THE POSSIBILITY THAT LASHIN MAY AT SOME POINT HAVE CROSSED THE SCREEN OF RUSSIAN INTELLIGENCE OFFICERS.7. FILE: 144-120-027. DECL OADR DRV HUM 4-82.SECRET

AS HQS IS AWARE, STATION CONTINUES TO CONDUCT JOINT TELTAP OPERATIONS WITH MEXICAN LIAISON AGAINST THE RUSSIAN AND CUBAN EMBASSIES; HOWEVER, THE TAKE ON THE CUBANS IS VERY LIMITED. WE ARE CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF INITIATING A UNILATERAL TELTAP OP AGAINST THE CUBAN EMBASSY AND SEVERAL RESIDENCES. THUS, ANY OFFICIAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF WHERE TELTAP TAPES ON OSWALD WERE DERIVED WOULD HAVE DETRIMENTAL EFFECT ON CURRENT LIAISON RELATIONSHIP. THE MEXICAN LIAISON SERVICES AND SENIOR GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS CONTINUE TO BE SENSITIVE RE THE NWBOLTON RELATIONSHIP, AND THERE ARE THOSE WITHIN THESE RANKS WHO QUESTION WHETHER OR NOT THE MEXICANS SHOULD HAVE ANYTHING MORE THAN A FORMAL RELATIONSHIP WITH NWBOLTON. STATION BELIEVES THAT ANY EXPOSURE (WHETHER OLD OR NEW) AT THIS STAGE OF THE LIAISON RELATIONSHIP (A NEW REGIME IS COMING TO POWER) WOULD FORCE THE MEXICANS TO REASSESS THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH US AS WELL AS QUESTION OUR ABILITY TO MAINTAIN A DISCREET AND PROTECTED RELATIONSHIP. (IT WOULD ALSO GIVE OUR DETRACTORS THE EXCUSE TO FURTHER REDUCE OR COMPLETELY BREAK OFF THE RELATIONSHIP.) GIVEN THE HIGH INTEREST OF POLICYMAKERS IN NARCOTRAFFICKING, TERRORISM, AND COUNTERINTELLIGENCE IN MEXICO, THE PRESERVATION OF STATION LIAISON EQUITIES IS PARAMOUNT AT THIS TIME.

ON 16 NOVEMBER, NPQ ACCOMPANIED SUBJECT AS   INTERPRETER TO A FILMING WITH A PROMINENT AMERICAN T.V. NEWS   PERSONALITY. THE ROOM WAS FILLED WITH PRINT AND MEDIA   JOURNALISTS AND THE NEWS PERSONALITY MADE A POINT OF STRESSING   THAT HIS NETWORK HAS DEVELOPED EXCEPTIONAL EXPERTISE ON THE   *<KENNEDY ASSASSINATION>AND IS DOING A MUCH BETTER JOB THAN THE   FBI OR CIA. DURING A 3 1/2 HOUR INTERVIEW, SUBJECT WENT INTO AN   EXCRUCIATINGLY DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF HIS MEETINGS WITH   OSWALD: WHO STOOD WHERE, WHO WORE WHAT, ETC AND EQUALLY   DETAILED ANSWERS TO SUBSEQUENT QUESTIONS. SUBJECT RESPONDED TO   SECRET

MHFNO: 93-4634535SENSIND:PAGE: 2MOST QUESTIONS IN ENGLISH, BUT WAS OCCASIONALLY CONFUSED BY AN UNEXPECTED QUESTION AND WAS FORCED TO RELY ON NOP. FOLLOWING THE TAPING, NOP INVITED SUBJECT (AT FBI REQUEST) FOR COFFEE AND LATER TO DINNER AT HIS HOME. BOTH WERE GRATEFULLY ACCEPTED AS SUBJECT, WHOSE HOTEL WAS PAID BY THE PUBLISHER, HAD NO WALKING AROUND MONEY. THE DINNER SUBSEQUENTLY DID NOT TAKE PLACE SINCE SUBJECT COULD NOT RESOLVE A SCHEDULING CONFLICT WHICH HAD HIM PARTICIPATING IN AN INTERVIEW AT THE SAME TIME.4. SUBJECT ENJOYED HIS CIRCA 10 YEARS IN MEXICO AND CUBA. HE CHEERFULLY LAMENTED THAT THE REZIDENTURA IN MEXICO HAD TO USE COMMERCIAL PHONE LINES TO TALK TO THEIR CUBAN COUNTERPARTS: "THE CIA KNEW EVERYTHING WE DID." FOLLOWING HIS EXPULSION FROM MEXICO CITY IN 1971, SUBJECT WAS ASSIGNED TO THE ANALYSIS DIVISION OF THE FIRST CHIEF DIRECTORATE FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND MADE SEVERAL TRIPS TO CUBA AND NICARAGUA. HE BECAME ELIGIBLE TO RETURN TO MEXICO AGAIN WHEN THE THEN MEXICAN PRESIDENT STATED PRIVATELY DURING A STATE VISIT TO MOSCOW THAT SUBJECT AND APPARENTLY OTHERS WHO WERE EXPELLED WITH HIM COULD RETURN ANYTIME.5. FOR APPROXIMATELY SEVEN YEARS, CIRCA 1975-1982, SUBJECT WAS ASSIGNED TO VIETNAMESE AFFAIRS. BASED ON THIS EXPERIENCE HE DISAGREED COMPLETELY WITH THE ALLEGATIONS BY KGB GENERAL ((KALUGIN)) THAT AMERICANS POWS WERE HELD IN RUSSIA. ACCORDING TO SUBJECT, KALUGIN IS PARANOID AND TRULY BELIEVES HIS OWN CLAIMS. SUBJECT SAID THE KGB OBTAINED THICK FILES ON POWS FROM THE VIETNAMESE WHICH THE KGB THOUGHT SERVE AS THE BASIS FOR AN EXCHANGE OF SENSITIVE (NFI) EQUIPMENT THAT THE VIETNAMESE WANTED. AFTER REVIEWING THE FILES, HOWEVER, IT BECAME APPARENT THAT THE FILES WERE USELESS, BECAUSE THERE SEEMED LITTLE OPPORTUNITY TO RECRUIT A POW AS AN FI SOURCE. CONTINUING, SUBJECT SUPPORTED HIS COMPLAINT ABOUT THE USELESSNESS OF THE FILES BY COMPLAINING THAT THE VIETNAMESE NEVER INFORMED THE KGB ABOUT THEIR OPERATIONS OR CONTACTS IN SOUTH VIETNAM: "WE SUPPLIED THEM WITH EVERYTHING, INTEL, MATERIAL, WEAPONS, AND THEY WOULDN'T TELL US ANYTHING."6. CIRCA 1985, AS VIETNAM FADED AS AN ISSUE, SUBJECT GOT A JOB AS AN INSTRUCTOR AT THE KGB SCHOOL, AKA THE RED BANNER INSTITUTE OR ANDROPOV INSTITUTE. THIS ASSIGNMENT WAS REGARDED AS PLUSH DUTY BECAUSE THE COLONELS COULD RELAX AND ENJOY THE BENEFITS OF THEIR RANK IN EXCHANGE FOR TELLING WAR STORIES ABOUT GREAT OPERATIONS THEY RAN.7. IN 1991, SUBJECT REACHED MANDATORY RETIREMENT AGE OF 60. SINCE THEN, HE HAS BEEN INVOLVED WITH AN "INTERNATIONAL COUNTER-TERRORIST TRAINING INSTITUTE" IN MOSCOW THAT IS STAFFED WITH OTHER OLD COLD WARRIORS AND WRITING HIS BOOK. ON THE OCCASION OF THE VISIT OF THE LEAD SENATOR ON POW/MIA ISSUES TO MOSCOW, SUBJECT'S KGB SUPERIORS TOLD HIM TO SPEAK FREELY WITH THE SENATOR.8. UNDER FBI DIRECTION, NQP TRIED TO ELICIT UPDATED CI INFO BY SPECULATING OUT LOUD THAT "YOUR GUYS PROBABLY DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO HERE" AND WAS TOLD, "YOU'RE BASICALLY RIGHT."
