[Sen. Ted] Kennedy is very impressed with the activities of Y. V. Andropov and other Soviet leaders.
~ May 14, 1983 Memo of KGB Chief, Victor Chebrikov
The death of any famous or infamous person brings out an assortment of skeletons from their proverbial closet. One skeleton that caught my attention last week was the astonishing claim, based on KGB documents released under the Glasnost policies, of Russian President Boris Yeltsin on Sen. Ted Kennedy.
Kennedy's treason first came to public attention in a Feb. 2, 1992, article in the London Times, titled, 'Teddy, the KGB and the top secret file,' by reporter Tim Sebastian. The seditious events were also published in Human Events in 2003, which read in part:
One of the documents, a KGB report to bosses in the Soviet Communist Party Central Committee, revealed that 'In 1978, American Sen. Edward Kennedy requested the assistance of the KGB to establish a relationship' between the Soviet apparatus and a firm owned by former Sen. John Tunney, D-Ca. KGB recommended that they be permitted to do this because Tunney's firm was already connected with a KGB agent in France named David Karr. This document was found by the knowledgeable Russian journalist Yevgenia Albats and published in Moscow's Izvestia in June 1992.
Another even more disturbing KGB memo was analyzed in detail by writer Paul Kengor in his 2006 book, 'The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism.'
