Documents / FOIA release
This Central Intelligence Agency release is a consolidated monitoring list of Soviet broadcasts for 19 January 1991. It catalogues Radio Moscow, TASS and television items by region and topic. Most items cover the Persian Gulf war, the crisis in Lithuania and the Baltics, Soviet domestic politics, and foreign relations. One entry records an anonymous 20-minute Korean-language program on world media interest in an unidentified flying object. The list gives no further details about that program.
