Major Developments in Soviet Propaganda
Soviets today are making a worldwide effort to sway public
opinion in their favor and against the U.S. They have committed
sizable human and material resources to this endeavor. While
this activity has continued over many years, there are signif-
icant current developments, including:
o Soviet external radio broadcasting has increased dramatically
in recent years. For example, their total of 2,094 hours per
week in 1980--an increase of 75 hours per week over 1979--
reflects the largest single jump in annual broadcasting in
over ten years. Radio Moscow World Service in English has
been on the air 24 hours a day since 1980.
o Soviet publishing for export has increased-substantially in
recent years. For example, the number of book and pamphlet
titles for export rose by almost 10 per cent between 1977 and
1979 (from roughly 2,280 to 2,495 titles) and the number of
copies of books and pamphlets for export rose by 16 percent in
the same period (from 56,849,200 to 61,396,800 copies).
o Soviet propagandists have increasingly ex loited Western
media, particularly television. In 1981 Soviet official spokes-
men "blitzed" American TV with a series of appearances on major
10 public affairs programs. They justified Soviet international
behavior, condemned U.S. activities worldwide, and promoted
major Soviet propaganda themes. Because no reciprocity exists
for Americans on Soviet TV, the U.S. must increase its efforts
in other ways to counter this Soviet advantage in media access.
Major Themes in Soviet Propaganda
?
These themes change very little over time. Soviet propagandists
adapt their basic line to fit current needs:
-- The U.S. aims to establish military superiority over the
USSR and by use of arms or the threat of force seeks to
achieve global hegemony for itself and world imperialism.
(Used to condemn Reagan budget with emphasis on defense)
-- The U.S. (and its NATO puppets) is unwilling to engage in
meaningful arms control/reduction talks with the USSR.
(Used to separate the U.S. and its allies over INF)
-- The U.S. interferes in the internal affairs of other nations.
(Used to condemn U.S. sanctions against Poland and the USSR,
to describe the situation in Afghanistan, and to criticize
U.S. policy toward the Middle East)
-- The USSR is the leading force for peace and liberation in
the world. (Used to justify fomenting revolutions)

 Approved For Release 2008/06/24: CIA-RDP83M00914R002100110014-6
2
? -- The USSR is committed to support national liberation move-
ments. (Used to justify Soviet interference in places such
as the Caribbean, Angola, Southeast Asia, and to overcome
U.S. objections to such actions)
-- The U.S. is anti-Soviet in all its policies. (Used to con-
demn an alleged U.S.-PRC alliance and American arming of the
Chinese.)
-- The CIA is plotting covert actions around the world to sub-
vert legitimate Marxist and leftist governments. (Used
with respect to Nicaragua, Cuba, Poland, African states)
-- The U.S. is a racist, exploitative, corrupt society. Its
economy is in very bad shape, with the poor and minorities
bearing the worst burdens of these difficulties.
Major Techniques of Soviet Propaganda
While Soviet propaganda techniques are many and varied, the most
important are:
Indirection
? Soviet propagandists take quotations out of context, cite sources
inaccurately, misuse legitimate Western reporting, and "plant" pro-
Soviet information--all to lend credence and support to their own
views.
Diversion
Soviets blunt attacks on the USSR by diverting attention from
their misdeeds, often through absurd/false charges aimed at the U.S.
Fanning Resentment
An essential purpose of Soviet propaganda is to incite social
unrest and to play up traditional resentments with the expectation
that, in conditions of social disorganization, Communists will
more easily be able to take power.
Disinformation
By spreading lies, forgeries, and other forms of false
information--in their own media and through the Soviet-sympathetic
media of other nations--the USSR tries to sway world public
opinion against the U.S.

THE SECRETARY OF STATE
WASHINGTON
? MEMORANDUM FOR: THE PRESIDENT
From: Alexander M. Haig, Jr.
Charles z. Wick
COt-IUtI\ t , ,
Subject: Initiative To Set the Stage for Your Trip to Europe
We face a major problem in Europe with the
among young people there to blur the disti.nctionrbetweenedemocratic
and communist societies. Your personal involvement would be.
extremely helpful in addressing this problem. We suggest that on
the eve of your trip to Europe you announce a new Atlantic Youth
Fellowship exchange program -- a 5 year initiative aimed at
substantially increasing the present level of exchanges between
American and European 17-19 year olds. This program would mark the
first time the USG has focused on exchanges for this age group.
This effort would begin the urgent task of building a new fabric of
relations among the next generation of Americans and Europeans to
help replace the old fabric of ties that are fast disintegrating.
Increased contact and communication between American and
European young people would improve their ability to recognize that
what we share is far more important than the issue's dividing us.
These exchanges would focus on our mutual accomplishments --
intellectual, economic, security and political -- that have been
nurtured by 35 years of peace and Western cooperation. They would
help provide a vision of the future which gives youth a greater
sense of having a stake in the democratic values we share.
The 35th anniversary of the Marshall Plan and the 25th
anniversary of the Treaty of Rome, present an ideal context for you
to reaffirm existing ties with the Allies and to launch this two-way
initiative. We recommend that the White House announce a special
meeting -- organized by ICA, State and the White House -- in May to
examine how to best improve US-European ties. This meeting would
include private and government leaders from both sides of the
Atlantic. We would ask you to make brief remarks to kick off the
meeting and announce our 5 year initiative for greater youth
exchange.
To avoid any appearance of American largesse being heaped on a
hapless-Europe, the program should be a joint effort suppoted by
government and private funds on both continents. If you approve
this initiative, we will approach government y eaders
Europe to shape their cosponsorship and coordinate private tplan's in
announcement. This is especially important in Italy where we have
already begun to lay the groundwork for a pilot project starting in
September, which would significantly increase youth exchange between
our two countries.

 Approved For Release 2008/06/24: CIA-RDP83M00914R002100110014-6
? Announcing this initiative just prior to your departure
would be an excellent scene-setter for your trip. By showing
sensitivity to the problems of youth, it would help create a
positive tone for your journey.
Recommendations:
1. That you approve the Atlantic Youth Fellowship program,
a new initiative for increased U.S.-European youth exchanges.
Approve
Disapprove
2. That you agree to a White House announcement, as soon
as possible, for a May meeting to examine how to improve
U.S.-European ties.
Approve Disapprove
3. That you agree to speak and-to launch this new
initiative for U.S.-European youth exchange at the meeting in
May.

MEMORANDUM FOR: THE PRESIDENT
FROM : Charles Z. Wic
Director
SUBJECT : Reaching the Europeans
Through Public Diplomacy
During my travels in Europe I was. impressed by
the progress made in gaining European public
understanding of U.S. policies. However, we
need to do more through public diplomacy. High
on the list of European concerns are the arms
race and the economy. All too often your words
and other U.S. policy statements reach European
audiences in distorted form after instant analy-
sis by media commentators here and abroad.
A significant exception was your November 18
speech on arms reduction for peace. That
speech, which ICA satellited directly to Europe,
told the Europeans exactly what they wanted to
hear and met with near unanimous approval.
Your upcoming trip to Europe presents opportuni-
ties to add momentum to your peace initiative.
The points you made on November 18, and others,
need to be reiterated-to those Europeans who
remain dubious, poorly informed and fearful
about U.S. policies. At the same time, the
importance of fostering and preserving unified
Western actions in opposition to the repression
in Poland and Afghanistan should be stressed.
While building up an adequate Western defense
against the Soviet threat, the United States
must keep talking peace to reassure our Allies,
muster support for our positions, and energize
other Western governments to make better efforts
in public diplomacy, especially with the suc-
cessor generation.

Following are three specific recommendations for
you to build on your November initiative.
RECOMMENDATION 1
INTERVIEWS WITH KEY PRINT AND TELEVISION
CORRESPONDENTS FROM THE COUNTRIES YOU WILL
VISIT.
To set the scene for your trip and to reach
Europeans directly without passing through the
filter of media commentators, I recommend your
granting here in Washington in mid-April a half-
hour to forty-five minute interview to a group
of four senior correspondents from Italy (I1
Tempo), Great Britain (The Economist), France
(Le Monde) and the Federal Republic (Die Welt).
The specific topics for discussion (the economy,
arms control, the Atlantic Alliance, East-West
relations and U.S. policy in Central America)
should be agreed upon in advance. In addition
it will be requested that each journalist submit
his questions in advance.
A second half-hour interview with senior tele-
vision correspondents from the same countries
should be taped for broadcast just prior to your
trip. Each journalist's questions will be sub-
mitted in advance.
RECOMMENDATION 2
A MAJOR FOREIGN POLICY SPEECH IN LONDON ON
THE SUBJECT OF PEACE AND SHARED WESTERN
VALUES.
At an appropriate historical site in London you
should deliver a major policy address on U.S.-
European relations before a substantial and sym-
pathetic audience. Such a major address, care-
fully focused on two or three basic themes,
would have great weight and resonance.

The timbre of your?voi?ce, the quality of your
body movements in combination with an overall
aura that you generate, communicates an inner
warmth and sincerity which is truly confidence
building. There is very little lost despite a
simultaneous translation of your words and/or
subtitles. Your speech would be televised live
in the U.K. and throughout Europe.
The overall theme for such an address should be
our ardent desire and search for peace. While
it is important to make the point about the need
for adequate defense to guarantee peace, we must
not lose ground to the Soviets, who hammer away
at the peace theme while steadily and quietly
beefing up their forces.
The U.S. has, perhaps, spoken too loudly about
the need for nuclear force modernization, defen-
sive chemical weaponry and arms increases. The
emphasis on arms has tended to drown out our
peace-seeking voice, which is.the one the
Europeans most want to hear.
In this speech you might challenge the Soviets
to a "Race for Peace" instead of a race for
war. After all, the United States represents
the real "peace movement". We seek to conquer
no territory and are willing to discuss genuine
arms control and reduction.
For this "Race for Peace" to be effective, how-
ever, the Soviets need to go beyond their empty
rhetoric and begin to demonstrate more re-
strained international conduct. They must not
be permitted, through their propaganda, to
undermine the sound and proven values uniting
the free world.
A second important theme is the bond of shared
values which unites the Western democracies.
Individual liberty and the freedom of self-ex-
pression are cherished rights which we and our

forefathers earned through sacrifice and dedica-
tion. Continued vigilance is required to pro-
tect these rights, which we must not take for
granted. At the same time we cannot stand
mutely by when other people and nations, as
close as Poland and Afghanistan and as far away
as Kampuchea, struggle for their human rights
and national independence. This theme would be
particularly relevant to the "successor genera-
tion" of Europeans who did not experience the
carnage of World War II.
RECOMMENDATION 3
TRIBUTE TO THE MARSHALL PLAN AND REMARKS ON
THE NEED FOR JOINT EFFORTS TO OVERCOME OUR
ECONOMIC DIFFICULTIES.
While in Paris on June 5, the 35th anniversary
of the Marshall Plan, we recommend you visit the
headquarters of the OECD, which is a direct and
lasting outgrowth of the European Recovery
Plan. This would be a highly appropriate site
for positive remarks by you recalling joint
European-American achievements under the
Marshall Plan and stressing the need to rededi-
cate ourselves to the principles of cooperation,
hard work and determination in meeting the eco-
nomic challenges of today.
The mutual benefits which we and the Europeans
derived from the Marshall Plan should serve as
an example to us of the wisdom of joint endeav-
ors by nations which share the same basic prin-
ciples and love of freedom.
This tribute to the Marshall Plan would serve
two useful purposes. It would remind older
Europeans of our successful common efforts to
reconstruct war-torn Europe and inform younger
Europeans about the post-war recovery period, an
era with which many of them are unfamiliar.
