    The Mexico City Files: The Days Oswald Disappeared

    The 2025 CIA declassifications finally expose the truth: Oswald didn’t just visit Mexico City. He maneuvered through it - shadowed, recorded, and erased.


    🏛️ The Embassy Runaround

    Lee Harvey Oswald arrived in Mexico City on September 27, 1963. Within days, he had visited both the Cuban and Soviet embassies - not once, but repeatedly.

    The 2025 files reveal transcripts of tapped embassy phone lines. In one, Oswald demands to speak to “Comrade Kostikov,” a Soviet official tied to Department 13 - the sabotage and assassination division.

    That name was never included in the official Warren Report.


    🎙️ The Tape They Buried

    The CIA’s Mexico City station recorded almost everything - except, apparently, Oswald’s calls. For years, the tapes were “lost.”

    Until 2025.

    One transcript reveals a caller identifying himself as “Oswald,” asking for travel to Cuba and Russia, saying:

    “I was told to check in. It’s all in motion.”

    A memo flagged the voice as “inconsistent with known recordings.” It was archived under “Do Not Pursue.”


    📸 Wrong Man, Right Time

    The only supposed photo of Oswald entering the Soviet Embassy? Doesn’t match.

    An internal agency note, now declassified, reads:

    “Negative ID match. Resemblance unclear. Don’t escalate.”

    That analyst was reassigned two weeks later. His name never appears again in internal records.


    🧾 Hoover’s Quiet Shutdown

    A final cable, sent from FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover’s office, sealed the deal:

    “This narrative undermines Commission cohesion. Archive and close.”

    The CIA obliged.


    🎯 They Watched Him Walk In. Then Cut the Film.

    For 60 years, Oswald’s Mexico visit was treated as a footnote. These new documents turn it into a headline.

    The truth wasn’t just ignored - it was blacked out.
