We would appreciate receiving Headquarters traces on Identity, subsequent to the negative results per ref, (A), and a POA for contact and assesament. We are considering Ideatity as a poseible access agent in the REDTOP field, specifically against Hikelay Sergeyevich LEQNOV (201-1321399), known KGB, and his eventual replacement. 2. As Headquarters is aware, the Station maintains an active interest in LEQHOV. Fer ref. (5), he hag been a principal eontact and source of both funds and dcecuments for Guatemalans travelling to the USSR and for Central American exiles, and he has alse been linked repestediy and prominently with the support activity provided to Latin American Communist parties. 3, Although LEGHOV may depart before Identity can be used effectively against him, we feel certain that his replacement will be engaged in similar extra-Press Office activities of prime interest to us. for/Villard C.

Our surveillance con- i firmed their departure from Mexico City on 20 April 1968 on OF separate flights, ai : 2, We informed | | who informed | ; the Colombian Security Service, 6 WéFre Picked up upon a ; arrival in Bogota. PACHON was carrying $70,000 (U.S.} and MORENO was carrying $30,000 (U.S.). ae OS eee cores 3.

One courie: has made several trips to Mexico to . | £ receive money from the Soviets, The largest anount was to. | % $200,000 (U.S,) which he got from LEONOV. in June 1967. The 74 : smallest amount received was $75,000 (U.S.). , | i y fr + re The address and ideutification of the PCC clandes~ tine printing press, The Colombians raided this installation and captured the operator plus false documents and passports, forging material, presses, etc, He talked and said tiat he had received 11/2 years of training in the USSR in forgery. All } equipment and false passport blanks were supplied by the Soviets. i at es LEf rae e, All clandestine support and direction to the PCC and FARC comes from the Soviet Embassy in Mexico, The regular ; contact is Nikolay 8. LEONOV, The chief referent for Communist | i Party matters in Latin America is Boris Aleksandrovich KAZANTSEV, Counselor of the Soviet Embassy in Mexico City. ee 4, This whole affair has been personally very embarrasing to Colombian President LLERAS because he had just agreed to diplomatic relations with the USSR, (The new Soviet Ambassador to Colombia, Nikolay A. BELOUS, presented his credentials on Fi 27 May 1968). LLERAS had already been criticized in the press, ; when it was learned after BELOUS had been accepted, that BELOUS had been declared Persona Non Grata in Argentina in 1958, for direct involvement in fomenting Communist inspired strikes. (COMMENT: In the official curriculum vitae which the Soviet Foreign Office sent to Colombia on BELOUS, his assignment in Argentina was omitted.) Although LLERAS ordered a forceful prosecution or this matter, he insisted that the blame be put 5 on the Cubans rather than the Soviets in order to avoid personal . : embarrassment, 1 5. We have been covering LEONOV thoroughly because he is : the principal KGB contact in Mexico for Communist Parties in a other Latin American countries, He has been in Mexico for ten (10) years doing very little other than handling Communist Party matters, 6, One of the vrincipal clandestine activities of the Soviet Embassy in Mexico is the support, direction and financing of Latin American Comayeist parties in those Latin American . countries where the Soviets do not have diplomatic represent= : ation, The Soviet. have diplomatic relations with only six (6) Latin American countries, namely, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Uruguay, Argentina and Mexico, Thus, the importance of Mexico in this matter. ¥, om a a Pee & ‘ j 1 i : BENET # 12,979 a EIA he APF SECRET oh phan tsetya sper rrey

He is popular among the press people because he appears 4 very frank, open and nice to them. He is not the kind, like many : other Soviets, who is afraid to make comments, in his own name, on t news items and this pleases the press who like personal opinions if hy i nothing more, He is helpful and hard-working and any reasonable request he makes an effort to fulfill. Apart from his work with the press, he does appear to be involved in intelligence work, He meets with David, Juan Rejano and another man (name not known) on matters which appear to have _ nothing to do with his press activities.,. It is possible that money is channeled through LEONOV for economic aid to certain magazines and propaganda work (perhaps even to the University groups although £ be is very cautious and this many not be true), eee My ane LEONOV tolerates (but does not love) his wife, who is quite a shrew, He apparently continues to live with her for the sake of z their daughter, Irina, but they appear to have nothing in common, i LEONOY is very popular with nearly everyone, but LEONOVA is almost universally disliked. The actual work of the Press Office he leaves nearly entirely in the hands of his employees, who appear to do their job quite well. They only consult him on special problems and money matters, but he appears to devote very little time to the actual work done at the 3 effice, He is busy making contacts, seeing people, visiting news«- so papermen and doing extra and special jobs for the Embassy (since his Beate SEEN ODE OEE er, i Spanish is so good and his personality so nice}. He interprets for 4 most of the important Soviet artists when they come to Mexico and he y § accompanies the Ambassador on many occasions, The previous Amb, a apparently trusted his judgment greatly and called on him frequently. LEONOV apparently plays chess quite well and likes to hunt = and fish, but is unable to devote much time to this, He has quite om # a@ social life, but mostly alone, and he appears to be high in favor q : B in the USSR since he is able to take vacations frequently and do, ; more. or less, as he likes, ae a ate ee Re eee cen Beta ACS epg oe “Hl « att - ca Ifo Maa seth BN - 20! _ Isa 131 wae : moe Tah anise in Diletta alee teen Teeagre
