| 1921-08-01 | N/A | Start of the 'Trust' deception operation. | Estonia | View |
This document describes the history of Russian intelligence utilizing "false flag" operations, specifically focusing on the "Trust" deception following the 1917 Bolshevik revolution. It details how a Soviet official, Aleksandr Yakushev, posed as a disillusioned insider to gain the trust and funding of Western intelligence agencies (British, French, and American) by fabricating an underground anti-Communist organization.
This document appears to be a page from a narrative text or book (possibly by Edward Jay Epstein given the subject matter and first-person reference to Angleton) submitted as evidence to the House Oversight Committee. It details the methodology of intelligence recruitment, specifically comparing it to corporate headhunting and explaining the concept of 'false flag' operations used by Russian intelligence (SVR). The text provides a historical example of the 'Trust' deception operation initiated by the Soviets in 1921 to manipulate Western intelligence and anti-Communist exiles.
