This document is page 198 of a manuscript (labeled HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020350) titled 'Through the Looking Glass'. It details an interview in Moscow between the narrator and former KGB spy handler Victor Ivanovich Cherkashin. The text focuses on Cherkashin's recruitment of high-profile US intelligence officers (Ames, Hanssen, Pelton) and his philosophy that resentment, rather than greed or lust, is the primary vulnerability in recruiting spies.
