The Director of Central Intelligence has publicly warned that Soviet intelligence activities actually have increased during this period of glasnost. however forthcoming the U.S.S.R. might be in other areas. Yet we are instituting new policies and relations with little or no thought to their longterm counterintelligence implications. This is true in areas such as visas. emigration. cultural and business exchanges. arms control verification policies. numbers of diplomatic officials. and diplomatic travel. Sometimes the bad effects could be tempered with only a little forethought. but these policies often are rushed through with virtually no thought at all. and usually with no organized or detailed input from the counterintelligence community. There are not enough agents in the whole FBI. much less in the Intelligence Division. to even attempt to cope with the resulting threat.
