Declassified Kennedy Assassination Documents Reveal USSR and Far-Right Conspiracy

Declassified documents about the assassination of 35th US President John F. Kennedy talk about the reaction to the crime in the USSR and far-right conspiracy theories, reports on Friday, October 27, The Guardian .

The White House has declassified only part of the murder documents. US President Donald Trump explained this as a threat to national security - some of the files have not yet completely lost their relevance. The published documents speak, in particular, of the reaction of the USSR to the assassination. Thus, the FBI at the time claimed that the Soviets perceived the assassination attempt as a conspiracy of ultra-right Americans who want to push the two superpowers together. According to one of the documents, the inhabitants of the USSR were shocked by the news of the death of the American president, and "bells rang" in his memory in the country.

The documents also say that two months before Kennedy was assassinated, Lee Harvey Oswald met in Mexico City with a Soviet diplomat who, according to American intelligence, was a KGB officer. However, the documents do not mention the involvement of the USSR intelligence in the murder. It is mentioned that in the USSR, Oswald was treated as "a neurotic maniac who has no attachment to anything."

John F. Kennedy was assassinated while on a trip to Dallas. Lee Harvey Oswald was charged with the murder. Oswald's motives remain unknown. During his transport by the police, he was shot and killed by nightclub owner Jack Ruby.
