[…] a famous Estonian footballer, called Evald Mikson. Mikson, learned Sanden, had worked with the Germans when they invaded Estonia in 1941, and had interrogated a captured Estonian agent of Soviet military intelligence, the GRU.

[…] and Moon himself, the UC was intimately involved in the Korean influence campaign directed by elements of the KCIA.
