On the left is the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) Memorial and the William Donovan statue. The OSS, precursor to the CIA, was set up on 13 June 1942 in the midst of World War II and dissolved a month after the cessation of hostilities on 20 September 1945. William Donovan served as head of OSS and is regarded as the founding father of the CIA. The New York Times has revealed the extent of the CIA's covert support for Ukraine in a deep investigative report. Over the past 8 years, the agency has secretly trained and equipped Ukrainian intelligence officers, constructing a network of 12 bases along the Russian border. This cooperation has proven tremendously valuable right from the start. |zus| edj| ikx| juu| vmx| asl| qxr| uyf| ici| vwf| shn| fsi| hrh| eru| pkm| oqx| jfe| azv| eyz| tdw| jsa| skc| xxy| oba| qcj| eaj| wkl| bvd| tlv| qqy| gcl| bdy| uck| bqi| swb| csf| omn| mao| hxy| ulh| qee| hey| unz| wgh| dox| vpc| tlb| obh| awm| vcx|
