PFIAB NOTES
- Looking forward - reconstituted Board
- Your arrival very timely
- An exciting and difficult year ahead - lots of problems
- Good news - IC feels itself in good shape - good new leadership
-- Odom and Perroots
-- Continue to use predecessors Faurer and Williams
-- Lots of new, young leadership moving up
- I'd like to give you a broad picture this morning - hit the high spots
and then take your questions
- Good place to start - National Foreign Intelligence Strategy
- SecState, SecDefense, myself and others at hearings during the fall
- DCI tasked to produce strategy document - will have in print when
Congress returns later this month
- In the strategy we provide:
-- A look at likely global conditions and the resulting strategic
challenges to the United States in the next decade
-- Our thoughts on providing national intelligence in the 1990s based
on planned and programmed capabilities
-- A sense of our priorities for the 1990s
- Some specifics include:
-- Concern for further development of Soviet strategic military
power at home and their continued exacerbation of trouble spots around the world
-- Diffusion of power in the world and continuing shifts in international
alignments
-- Continued stress on interdiction issues such as narcotics, terrorism,
chemical and nuclear weapons proliferation, technology transfer, etc.

SECRET
-- Potential new scientific and technological breakthroughs
-- Needs for close support to military operations
-- And a need to greatly improve the security of our people,
facilities, and information.
- We face a problem ahead having pretty well completed the five-year
buildup started in 1981
- Cadre of analysts and case officers has been beefed up
- With Gramm-Rudman we have come to the end of the rebuilding road, will
have a hard time holding, and will now have to concentrate on getting more
out of what we have - that's where the budget realities force our strategy
- Right now budget situation quite desperate - February 1 the President
under Gramm-Rudman will have to issue a sequestration order which will reduce
the funds available during the current fiscal year
25X1
25X1
- The 1987 budget request is pretty good but we have to expect a Gramm-Rudman
reduction which will run somewhere into the billions and without some adjustment
of Gramm-Rudman or significant revenue enhancements we could be in desperate
financial shape. So that will require a lot of watching.
- The situation on the ground in the regional conflicts raised by the
President at Geneva is requiring a lot of attention.
