RE: Foreign Government Liaison
Dear John:
This morning, Jack Tunheim, Phil Golrick, and I met with Kenneth Duncan and several
State Department representatives regarding how best to implement the JFK Act as to
information obtained from foreign governments through liaison channels. We had a
very constructive discussion of the affirmative role the State Department could play'in
encouraging foreign governments, through appropriate diplomatic channels, to agree to
the release of such information pursuant to the JFK Act. The Review Board believes
that Section 10(b)(2) of the JFKAct contemplates that the State Department play
precisely such a role.
As for now, we will hold in abeyance requests for evidence on foreign liaisdn
postponements to which the FBI has not yet responded. This will give us the
opportunity inr4he near future to work with the State Department and the FBI to
establish orderly procedures to persuade the foreign governments in question that it is
in our countries' mutual interests to release liaison information in assassination records.
Until such procedures are in place, we request that the FBI not make further contact
with foreign law-enforcement or other government officials regarding the release of
liaison information in assassination records.
BOARD MEMBERS: John R. Tunheim, Chair - Henry F. Graff - Kermit L. Hall - William L. Joyce -Anna K. Nelson
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR: David G. Marwell
