Sixty years after the start of the Korean War, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) released over 900 newly declassified documents from both the U.S. and communist governments showing the conflict’s continuing impact on international relations. In addition, 900 pages of documents relating to the Korean War and North Korea during the Cold War from the Woodrow Wilson Center’s North Korea International Documentation Project and the archives of the Harry S. Truman Library and Museum were opened at the press conference. Presenters on each of two panels responded to questions from members of the audience
“Baptism by Fire: CIA Analysis of the Korean War” was a program held in the Harry S. Truman Library and Museum Auditorium in Independence, Missouri, co-sponsored by the CIA and Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars.
