KGB Deception Game to Divide-and-Conquer NATO

Deception Game — a segment from 1981 public domain production “The KGB Connections: An Investigation Into Soviet Operations in North America” informing viewers on Communist active measures employed by the intelligence agencies of the ☭USSR (and other regimes aligned with Moscow) aimed at sowing dissension within the NATO alliance: turning one NATO ally against another by use of subversion, deception, disinformation.

Following the restructuring (perestroika) of the Soviet Union in 1991, the tasks of the KGB in Russia were assumed by the renamed FSB as well as the GRU and SVR of the Russian Federation.

“The objective was to work toward dissolution of NATO, with the hope that after some few years, the tension within the organization would reach such a stage, that NATO would stop existing.”
—Ladislav Bittman, defector from Czechoslovak State Security (StB), an arm of the Soviet KGB
