Lee Harvey Oswald met with a KGB agent just two months before the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, according to newly unsealed confidential documents stemming from JFK’s murder.
The CIA memos, part of a trove of nearly 1,500 documents released Wednesday by the National Archives and Records Administration, also disclose that an anonymous tipster warned US embassy officials in Australia a year earlier that Kennedy would be assassinated by the Soviet Union for a $100,000 bounty.
But the tip was never passed on to the CIA.
“Cabled to Canberra asking full details of the telephone conversation of 23 November and the call made 15 October 1962, a 1964 memo said. “It should be noted that CIA had not previously known of the 1962 telephone call.”
The records include newly revealed details of Kennedy’s death — but fall short of resolving decades-old speculation about the case.
Among the revelations in the files was a meeting and follow-up phone call bewteen Oswald and a Soviet operative before JFK was shot in Dallas.
“According to an intercepted phone call in Mexico City, Lee Oswald was in the Soviet Embassy there on 23 September and spoke with Consul Valeriy Vladimirovich,” the document said.
“Oswald called the Soviet Embassy in 1 October, identifying himself by name and speaking broken Russian, stating the above and asking the guard who answered the phone whether there was ‘anything concerning the telegram to Washington,’” read the memo from then-acting CIA Chief Tennent Bagley.
The documents include a transcript of the Oct. 1 call.
“Hello, this [is] Lee Oswald speaking,” he said. “I was at your place last Saturday and spoke to a consul, and they said that they’d send a telegram to Washington, so I wanted to find out if you anything new. But I don’t remember the

So 58 years later. The CIA releases documents, that an anonymous tipster, said Oswald did it and was working for the USSR. And they had to hide that since 1963.

I think to impress them. He was viewed as a no value loser to them generally. I think this was him trying to restore his ego because of their rejection.
“The CIA memos, part of a trove of nearly 1,500 documents released Wednesday by the National Archives and Records Administration, also disclose that an anonymous tipster warned US embassy officials in Australia a year earlier that Kennedy would be assassinated by the Soviet Union for a $100,000 bounty.”
Yeah, because they couldn’t wait to empower the Powers/ Lemay/ Lemnitzer / Dulles wing in DC by getting JFK out of the way.
If the Feds knew this supposed truth before the murder, then they are complicut by not stopping it. I too believe the mafia had incentive. Didn’t the USSR beat JFK a few times? Why would they want him dead?
And what about Lyn’ Ted’s father and Oswald friend?
We’ve known this for 60 years...................The Russians thought he was either crazy as a lunatic or a CIA plant............
“The Commies killed him then they took over the Democratic party”
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Our domestic Deep State colluded with the commies to kill him and solidify their world wide power.

I think Tippet was set up to be killed in the hopes Oswald would be killed in a hail of DPD gunfire. When he was apprehended, Ruby had to come in and clean up.
As has been noted by at least two of you, this was already known before this latest dump.
The question might be why were these documents considered classified when this fact was already known, and for many years?
EMBASSY KGB HANDLER: "OSWALD? WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE FOR GOD'S SAKE??? DON'T YOU KNOW WE ARE UNDER CONSTANT PHOTOGRAPHIC SURVEILLANCE BY THE CIA???"
Because Joe needs some leverage on Russia during this Ukraine thing. It’s pathetic..
Agreed.
The only thing I know for sure, is the projectile on display at the Texas Book Depository museum did not hit anything. I am amazed they even attempted to use that as proof of anything. The cadaver testing with the Carcano rifle never resulted in a projectile in that condition.... nor could it.
No surprise, Oswald was a commie nut.
Th CIA is complicit. They will come at you 7 directions.
I think this is the most likely scenario. They may have planted the idea in his head, but just to incite a nut case (probably one of many) and not as any sort if agent. Historically, most political assassins in the U.S. have been fringe nuts acting alone.
I think Oswald was like the nut case who shot Rep. Scalise while trying to assassinate all of the Republican Congressman at a baseball practice in 2017. He was a Bernie Sanders supporter who was clearly incited by left wing democrats, but was not acting under their direction.
Either way, JFK was a victim of Communism. However, the liberal-Left establishment has successfully turned him into a martyr for civil rights and other liberal causes.
Oswald was trying to return to the USSR, because Oswald was a mixed up loser.
That Oswald went to the Soviet Embassy in Mexico City has been known about since the Warren Commission, and of course he’d have met with a KGB agent.
This guy (one of the so-called Oswald lookalikes) followed him into the embassy a short while later, having tailed Oswald through M.C. By his own account, he wondered what Oswald was doing there, and knew a contact inside. Later that year, he fired the fatal shot on JFK, from the County Records Building.
