-Caveat Lector- Sunday June 20 2:44 PM ET Russia Turns Over Documents On Kennedy COLOGNE, Germany (Reuters) - Russia turned over documents about the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy to the United States Sunday, the White House said. The documents, declassified after a Russian review of government, military and private archives, could shed light on Kennedy's assassin Lee Harvey Oswald, who lived in the former Soviet Union during the late 1950s and early 1960s. Oswald shot Kennedy in Dallas, Texas on Nov. 22, 1963. Russian President Boris Yeltsin gave the documents to President Clinton as they met in Cologne, Germany for talks to repair relations badly frayed by the Kosovo war. U.S. National Security Adviser Sandy Berger, describing the documents as ``a very interesting gift,'' said they were the result of an extensive search of Russian archives ordered by Yeltsin years ago. ``He had asked all of the agencies of the Russian government to declassify any and all material related to President Kennedy, and President Kennedy's assassination, both military and civilian archives as well as private archives,'' Berger told reporters after the meeting. Berger, speaking 20 minutes after the meeting ended, said he had not had time to review them but was certain they would ultimately be released to the public. ``I'm sure that those documents will be reviewed carefully and all interesting elements will be made public,'' he said. -- The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them. - Henry David Thoreau DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.
