TALKING POINTS FOR THE DCI
FOR THE
NSPG Meeting RE: Moscow Embassy Security
28 July 1987, 1400 hours, Situation Room
Mr. President, as I indicated in my recent memorandum to
you, I strongly recommend that we move promptly and firmly to
correct the unacceptable security situation in our Moscow
mission.
-- I fully endorse Jim Schlesinger's view that corrective
actions taken in Moscow will be effective only to the
extent that we successfully integrate physical,
technical and personnel security.
-- While many of the recommendations put forward by the
Laird, Schlesinger, and PFIAB reports will take time to
review and implement, I believe we should start
immediately to set into motion a program of action to
correct the security situation in Moscow.
To this end, I asked CIA, NSA, DIA, and the FsI_to review
the three reports, and prove a me their expert views and
recommendations. Based on a report produced by the interagency
team, I recommend:
The highest priority must be given to restoring
security and habitability to the Existing Office
Building.
The review of personnel nominated for assignment to
Moscow must be more comprehensive, including polygraph,
and the security and suitability standards made more
stringent and uniform.
Major investments must be undertaken to correct the
grossly inadequate physical security situation in
Moscow.
To neutralize the existing technical penetration of our
New Office Building in Moscow, we must dismantle and
reconstruct significant portions of the building. If
time and money were not constraints, the building
ideally should be replaced completely. Also,
aggressive exploitation of the Soviet monitoring
systems in the New Office Building should be continued.

SECRET)
A Diplomatic Security Agency, as described in the PFIAB
report, should be established.
As recommended by PFIAB, the DCI should be granted
authority for establishing overseas security policy and
standards and certifying the security of our overseas
missions.
Mr. President, accomplishing our objectives of security in
the New Office Building will require unprecedented cooperation
from the Soviets. If we fail to achieve the necessary
agreements with them, this will place an even greater premium on
obtaining an assured level of security in the Existing Office
Building and I believe should cause us to block the Soviets from
occupying Ehe Mt. Alto chancellery. As for the amount of
secured space required for Moscow, that will of course depend on
the size of the mission there.
