CONGRESSIONAL RECORD ? SENATE S 3963
tiative, when the Soviets are breaking
out of the treaty.
President Reagan has confirmed
that the Krasnoyarsk radar is an ABM
Treaty violation in six reports to the
Congress. But what is significant is
that publicly and in private diplomatic
channels, the Soviets have rebutted
our charge, and have repeatedly
claimed that the Krasnoyarsk radar
does not violate the ABM Treaty. The
Russians claim it is for space tracking,
is therefore not constrained by the
treaty, and therefore can be located
anywhere.
Mr. President, I have recently
learned something very disturbing
which the American people need to
know. I have worked carefully and
closely with CIA to declassify this
piece of information. I have today a
piece of important declassified intelli-
gence which effectively rebuts the
Soviet claims of innocence regarding
the Krasnoyarsk radar. The Central
,Intfiliffence Agency haetoday stated
the following;
- The United States is aware that, over the
last several years, Soviet officials have indi-
cated that the Krasnoyarsk radar is a viola-
tion of the ABM Treaty. Moreover, the So-
viets have also admitted that the Pechora
radar is an early warning radar. The Pe-
chora radar is identical to the Krasnoyarsk
radar. It is therefore not a space tracking
radar. It is an early warning radar. There-
fore, the Soviets have actually admitted
that they have violated the ABM Treaty.
This Soviet admission contradicts their dis-
information, lies, propaganda and duplicity.
This Soviet admission shows just
how irrelevant our debate over 'U.S.
compliance interpretations really is.
Mr. President, there is a second
point. A recently declassified judg-
ment of the President's March 1987
report to Congress on Soviet arms con-
trol noncompliance which discloses:
In totality, these activities provide a
strong basis for concern that the U.S.S.R.
might have an integrated plan for an ABM
defense of its national territory, and might
be working toward it.
Thus the President has indicated
that the Soviets are no doubt working
on a nationwide ABM defense?a de-
fense prohibited by the ABM Treaty.
The ABM Treaty's article I prohibits
the nationwide ABM defense, or even
the base for a nationwide ABM de-
fense.
Finally Mr. President, the Penta-
gon's annual report, "Soviet Military
Power 1987" released on Tuesday
states:
The growing network of large phased-
array radars, of which the Krasnoyarsk
radar is a part, is of particular concern
when linked with other Soviet ABM efforts.
These radars take years to construct, and
their existence could allow the Soviet Union
to move , quickly to deploy a nationwide
ABM defense. Taken together . . . all of
their ABM and ABM related activities-sug-
gest that the Soviets may be preparing an
ABM defense of their nation.
Mr. President, let us now get on with
our debate over U.S. compliance with
the ABM Treaty, but let us keep in
mind that our compliance is being con-
ducted while the Soviets are admitting studies, among other things; to the Commit-
that they are breaking out of the tee on Governmental Affaii-s.
