Operation "Toucan"
The Soviet Union paid more attention to the support of his friendly modes. So, in 1976 the Soviet KGB and the Cuban DGI conducted a joint operation called "Toucan". She was in the formation of the "right" of public opinion in relation to the regime of Augusto Pinochet. That, in turn, has repeatedly said that the Communist Party - the main enemy of Chile.
The operation comes down to two things. The first - to create a negative image of Pinochet in the media. The second - to push the human rights organizations to the top of the external pressure on the country's leader. As a result, only one only of the American New York Times published 66 articles on human rights in Chile.
The KGB also was able to fabricate a letter, which has been regularly referred to many of the world journalists. The letter alleged CIA involvement is proof of the elimination of the political opposition in the countries of South America.
The release of hostages "Hezboly"
In 1985, 30 September, in Beirut were seized by 4 employees of the Soviet Embassy. Two of them - the staff officers of the KGB of the USSR. Responsibility for this seizure took over the Lebanese group "Forces of Khaled Bin Al-Walid." However, the KGB managed to establish, that is actually behind this action were responsible Shiite fundamentalists "Hezbolly" and Palestinian Fatah activists. Capturing had political aims.
KGB agents met with the then spiritual leader "Hezbolly" Sheikh Fadlallah and put pressure on him. In particular, the Soviet intelligence led him to the idea that if the hostages are released, the "random Soviet missiles" could start to fall on the "random Shiite shrines." In parallel, the KGB made arrests relatives involved in the capture of Soviet citizens. Providing a massive psychological pressure came to fruition, and the Soviet Union diplomats ended up in freedom.
