发帖数: 1700 | 1 President Trump announced Saturday that he planned to release the tens of
thousands of never-before-seen documents left in the files related to
President John F. Kennedy’s assassination held by the National Archives and
Records Administration.
‘‘Subject to the receipt of further information, I will be allowing, as
President, the long blocked and classified JFK FILES to be opened,’’ Trump
tweeted early Saturday.
Kennedy assassination experts have been speculating for weeks about whether
Trump would disclose the documents. The 1992 Kennedy Assassination Records
Collection Act required that the millions of pages - many of them contained
in CIA and FBI documents - be published in 25 years, by Oct. 26. Over the
years, the National Archives has released most of the documents, either in
full or partially redacted.
But one final batch remains and only the president has the authority to
extend the papers’ secrecy past the October deadline. In his tweet, Trump
seemed to strongly imply he was going to release all the remaining documents
. But he also hedged, suggesting that if between now and Oct. 26, other
government agencies made a strong case not to release the documents, he
wouldn't. |
