Accession number:350828 file id: eur206 date: 066/28/94 title: cia director calls for cooperation with russia, Ukraine(066/28/94)文本:*94062803。华盛顿——美国中央情报局局长詹姆斯·伍尔西6月28日敦促美国、俄罗斯和乌克兰的情报机构加强合作。他说:“我们有许多事情需要共同努力,以防止大规模杀伤性武器的扩散和地区冲突的蔓延。”伍尔西在莫斯科美国大学和峰会理事会主办的一次会议上说,他“特别担心有组织的犯罪集团可能会看到通过走私核材料、甚至核弹头和核武器来赚钱的机会”。但他强调,“我们还没有看到这种情况。”他说,“到目前为止,我们看到的大部分都是骗局。”伍尔西说,他看到三国在安全问题上“合作的机会越来越多”。他补充说:“共同目标和共同事业有很大的空间。我们非常重视与你们国家重建的友谊。”一名俄罗斯与会者问,鉴于俄罗斯的情报程序比美国严格,三国是否应该采取统一的安全标准,伍尔西说,“这是每个国家必须自己决定的问题。” He pointed out that despite the fact that the United States had been to war with Mexico and Canada in the distant past, the country in recent history has been bordered by two friendly nations. "In modern times, we are an island in terms of security. Russia and Ukraine are not," he remarked. Most of Woolsey's remarks were devoted to a historical overview of the origins of the CIA and the way in which intelligence gathering in the United States is organized. He stressed that the CIA "functions differently than intelligence organizations in most countries." Contrary to popular perception, the CIA "is not a product of the Cold War. It was founded shortly before the Cold War -- in 1947 -- and was an outgrowth of the Office of Strategic Services (OSS)." The essential reason for its founding was to prevent another surprise attack on the United States such as occurred at Pearl Harbor, he explained. Woolsey stressed that the CIA "has no internal security function and no police powers." It is not a law enforcement organization; that function belongs to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), he added. "We obtain intelligence and the FBI conducts investigations and works with law enforcement in other countries," he noted. He also pointed out that oversight of the CIA and other intelligence organizations is performed by Congress. The current system, "which was spawned during the 1970s, works reasonably well," he noted. Last year, he said he appeared at Senate or House hearings 180 times. Woolsey said that in the past an emphasis was placed on presenting a more or less uniform intelligence view to administration officials, which inevitably resulted in compromises among various intelligence organizations and within the CIA itself. As a result, he said that intelligence 1stimates in the sixties, seventies, and even eighties "were often vague." "Now, we don't try to reach some kind of common, vague prediction," he explained. Instead, he said the intelligence community tries to use intelligence estimates "as teaching documents" and to include disagreements with appropriate explanations. NNNN .
