Book Excerpt / Congressional Oversight Document • 1.01 MB
View

This document appears to be a page from a book (Chapter 18: The Unheeded Warning) produced as evidence in a House Oversight investigation (Bates stamp HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019675). The text details the story of Alexander Poteyev, a Russian SVR colonel recruited by the CIA as a mole in the 1990s, who provided critical intelligence in April 2010 while serving as deputy chief of the SVR's 'American' section. The file includes a timestamp of September 29, 2016, and the filename prefix 'Epst' suggests it may be part of a collection related to Epstein or a similarly named file dump, though the content strictly concerns US-Russia intelligence operations.
