  • The JFK files released by President Donald Trump include additional information on Kennedy's killer, Lee Harvey Oswald. Although a number of documents released by Trump are the same as documents already released into the public domain by Joe Biden, one document sheds light on Oswald's relationship with the KGB.

The release of the JFK files has provided new insights into Lee Harvey Oswald, the man accused of assassinating President John F. Kennedy. According to the documents, Oswald had a complex background, including his defection to the Soviet Union in 1959, where he lived for nearly two years before returning to the U.S. in 1962. The files reveal his connections with pro-Castro groups, his activities with the Fair Play for Cuba Committee, and his interactions with the FBI, which had been monitoring him due to his political activities. There are also notes on his mental state, with some documents suggesting he might have had psychological issues. Furthermore, the files include interviews with people who knew Oswald, offering a glimpse into his personality and possible motivations. Despite the extensive documentation, the files do not conclusively prove or disprove any conspiracy theories surrounding the assassination, but they do paint a detailed picture of Oswald's life leading up to November 22, 1963.
