- jlgreco 13y agoYes, it was obviously a very chaotic situation, it doesn't surprise me that the CIA got their beak wet. Whether the mission of the Federal Commissioner for the Stasi Archives was to destroy or preserve the records probably makes little difference in this case, those records were seemingly stolen before a policy towards the records was decided upon.
