The article presents information related to political and social conditions in the U.S., during cold war. Sandy Weill, chairman of the Travelers Group, told on CNN in January 1997 that "I think as we look at this world that we are living in, there are opportunities for a lot of terrific things to happen." With the end of the cold war, a number of former KGBers have come forward to tell their spy stories. The most recent debut is that of retired KGB officer Aleksandr Semyonovich Feklisov, who says he was the Soviet intelligence agent who during World War II, personally received information from a member of a spy ring Julius Rosenberg. Feklisov's story highlights a problem that has bedeviled students of the U.S.'s cold war spy cases.
