"Excerpt from Wikipedia:

KGB is the Russian abbreviation of Committee for State Security, which was the official name of the umbrella organization serving as the Soviet Union's premier security agency, secret police, and intelligence agency, from 1954 to 1991."

It might benoted that the KGB also was the premier "dirty tricks" agency, the premier recriuter of spies from western countries through threat and blackmail, and the premier murder agency employed against enemies of the Soviet regime ... wherever they may be ... Russia, Eastern or Western Europe, the USA ...
