(23 Feb 1994) Russian officials on Wednesday (23/2) shrugged off a scandal over
the arrest of an alleged Kremlin mole in the CIA, saying "these
things happen now and then". Aldrich Ames, former head of the
CIA's Soviet counter-intelligence branch, and his wife were
charged on Tuesday (22/3) with being "moles" who since 1985 had
spied first for the Soviet Union, and then, after its breakup, for
Russia.
