KGB defector tells the Americans about the methods Soviet intelligence agencies used to weaken the West
"The highest art of warfare is not to fight at all, but to subvert anything of value in your enemy's country."
Yuri Alexandrovich Bezmenov was a Soviet journalist for Novosti Press Agency (APN). In 1970, as a member of the KGB Soviet mission in New Delhi, India, Bezmenov defected to the West and was re-settled in Canada pursuant to an arrangement between American and Canadian security agencies.
After being assigned to a station in India, Bezmenov eventually grew to love the people and the culture of India. At the same time, he began to resent the KGB-sanctioned repression of Soviet dissidents and other intellectuals who dissented from Moscow's policies and he decided to defect to the West.
Bezmenov is best remembered for his anti-Marxist and anti-Atheist lectures and books published in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s.
NEWSRAEL: Instead of learning from this candid man, the CIA inserted subversive men like John Brennan!
