Nothing But the Facts on UFOs or Which Novosti Writer Do You Read? (with 2 Articles Attached)

Central Intelligence Agency · 1968-04-09 · 8 pages · text by GLM-OCR

This Central Intelligence Agency memo, dated 9 April 1968, forwards two articles from the Soviet news agency Novosti (APN) that take opposite views on UFOs. Felix Zigel's February 1968 Soviet Life article treats UFOs seriously and cites Soviet sightings and the Tunguska explosion. Villen Lyustiberg's article dismisses them as a myth and claims the U.S. publicizes them to divert attention. The memo notes the irony of such disagreement appearing in Soviet media.
