This document appears to be a page from a book or investigative report (likely by journalist Edward Jay Epstein, given the reference to his book on Angleton) discussing KGB espionage tactics. It details the handling of NSA spy Ronald Pelton, including payments totaling $35,000 and debriefings in Vienna regarding 'Project A' (undersea cable tapping). The author uses the Pelton case to analyze Russian intelligence's probable interest in and handling of Edward Snowden, suggesting they would aggressively exploit his knowledge just as they did Pelton's.
