� The FOIA case officer advised the requester that although it is the CIA's policy to neither confirm nor
deny the existence of records that might indicate a current or former operational or analytical interest in
any particular foreign personality, the CIA can sometimes provide requesters with overt or previously
released records containing information on foreign nationals that is unrelated to any classified or covert
interest. Accordingly, the requester was provided with 60 pages of previously released material on Mr.
Kubitschek from the Management of Officially Released Information (MORI) database.
