President Wants to Disclose KGB Archives

President Saakashvili said today that KGB’s all top secret documents in Georgia should be disclosed for public.

“Georgia is not a successor of Soviet Georgia, thus the secret documents dated 20s and 30s before the collapse of the Soviet Union will be made public,” Mikheil Saakashvili told reporters.

He said that the part of the Soviet Georgia’s KGB archive has been secretly handed over to Moscow in early 90s, “however another important part of this archive still remains in Georgia.”

As the Prime Minister Zurab Zhvania said earlier, the new authorities also intend to pass the law on lustration, which will make the security service legally bound to reveal any links with foreign special services of current senior officials or nominees to such a post.
