Dirección General de Inteligencia (DGI)

General Intelligence Directorate

Ministry of the Interior

The principal intelligence collection arms of the Cuban government are the
General Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of the Interior, and
the Military Counterintelligence Department of the Ministry of
Revolutionary Armed Forces. Both have been closely associated with the
Soviet and Russian intelligence services. The relationship between these
services is likely to continue based upon the June 14, 1993 agreement on
military cooperation between Russia and Cuba. 
The General Intelligence Directorate (DGI) was established under the
Ministry of the Interior (MININT) in late 1961. The new agency included
three Liberation Committees - for the Caribbean, Central America, and
South America - collectively known as the Liberation Directorate (DL).
In the early 1960's, the DL also was responsible for supporting
liberation movements in Africa, including those who overthrew the
government of Zanzibar in 1963. However Soviet economic pressure on
Cuba in 1967-68 forced Castro to develope a more selective
revolutionary strategy, and subordinate the DGI to the KGB. The KGB
compelled Castro to replace its chief, Manuel Piñeiro, with José Méndez
Cominches in 1969. The DGI thereafter focused its efforts on collecting
military, political and economic intelligence, with responsibility for
supporting national liberation movements shifting to the new National
Liberation Directorate (DLN), which was independent of the MININT. The
DLN was subsequently reorganized into the America Department (DA).


The DGI is responsible for
foreign intelligence collection. The DGI has six divisions divided into two
categories of roughly equal size: the Operational Divisions and the Support
Divisions. 
The operational divisions include the Political/Economic
Intelligence Division, the External Counterintelligence Division, and
the
Military Intelligence Division. The Political Economic Intelligence
Division consists of four sections: Eastern Europe, North America,
Western Europe, and Africa-Asia-Latin
America. The External Counterintelligence Division is responsible for
penetrating foreign intelligence services and the surveillance of
exiles.

The support divisions include the Technical
Support Division, the Information Division, and the Preparation Division.
The Technical Support Division is responsible for production of false
documents, communications systems supporting clandestine operations,
and development of clandestine message capabilities. The Information and
Preparation Divisions are responsible for intelligence analysis functions.


On November 15, 1982, four close aides to Castro were convicted
on charges of smuggling drugs into the United States. The four included
René Rodríguez-Cruz, a senior official of the DGI (Cuban Intelligence
Service). On February 7, 1983, a former member of the DGI testified in
the District Court for the Southern District of Florida, that Cuban
involvement in international drug operations was a multifaceted,
methodical campaign aimed at undermining
the United States and its international stature. And in 1988 testimony
from José Blandón Castillo, a former intelligence aid to Panamanian
leader Manuel Noriega, provided further evidence concerning Cuba's role
in the drug flow of the United States. 

The Cuban
mission to the United Nations is the third largest UN delegation, and it has
been alleged that almost half the personnel assigned to the mission are DGI
officers. The DGI actively recruits within the Cuban emigre community and
has used refugee flows into the United States to place agents. The DGI
collects political, economic, and military information within the United
States. More recently, the DGI has started to conduct operations to gain
access to technologies required to improve the Cuban economy. Cuba is
considered by the United States to be a sponsor of international terrorism
and has worked closely with Puerto Rican separatist and Latin American
terrorist groups. Much of this activity has been handled through the
DGI. 


The DGI is led by General Eduardo Delgado Rodriguez.
