SCOPE DESCRIPTION Iran Assist selected friendly foreign liaison services, third countries and third parties which have established relationships with Iranian elements, groups, and individuals sympathetic to U.S. Government interests and which do not conduct or support terrorist actions directed against U.S. persons, property or interests, for the purpose of: (1) establishing a more moderate government in Iran, (2) obtaining from them significant intelligence not otherwise obtainable, to determine the current Iranian Government's intentions with respect to its neighbors and with respect to terrorist acts, and (3) furthering the release of the American hostages held in Beirut and preventing additional terrorist acts by these groups. Provide funds, intelligence, counter-intelligence, training, guidance and communications and other necessary assistance to these elements, groups, individuals, liaison services and third countries in support of these activities. The USG will act to facilitate efforts by third parties and third countries to establish contact with moderate elements within and outside the Government of Iran by providing these elements with arms, equipment and related materiel in order to enhance the credibility of these elements in their effort to achieve a more pro-U.S. government in Iran by demonstrating their ability to obtain requisite resources to defend their country against Iraq and intervention by the Soviet Union. This support will be discontinued if the U.S. Government learns that these elements have abandoned their goals of moderating their government and appropriated the materiel for purposes other than that provided by this Finding.

Concerning Operations\nUndertaken by the Central Intelligence\nAgency in Foreign Countries, Other Than\nThose Intended Solely for the Purpose\nof Intelligence Collection\nI hereby find that the following operation in a foreign\ncountry (including all support necessary to such operation) is\nimportant to the national security of the United States, and due\nto its extreme sensitivity and security risks, I determine it is\nessential to limit prior notice, and direct the Director of\nCentral Intelligence to refrain from reporting this Finding to\nthe Congress as provided in Section 501 of the National Security\nAct of 1947, as amended, until I otherwise direct.\nSCOPE\nDESCRIPTION\nIran\nAssist selected friendly foreign liaison services,\nthird countries and third parties which have\nestablished relationships with Iranian elements,\ngroups, and individuals sympathetic to U.S. Government\ninterests and which do not conduct or support terrorist\nactions directed against U.S. persons, property or\ninterests, for the purpose of: (1) establishing a more\nmoderate government in Iran, (2) obtaining from them\nsignificant intelligence not otherwise obtainable, to\ndetermine the current Iranian Government's intentions\nwith respect to its neighbors and with respect to\nterrorist acts, and (3) furthering the release of the\nAmerican hostages held in Beirut and preventing\nadditional terrorist acts by these groups. Provide\nfunds, intelligence, counter-intelligence, training,\nguidance and communications and other necessary\nassistance to these elements, groups, individuals,\nliaison services and third countries in support of\nthese activities.\nThe USG will act to facilitate efforts by third parties\nand third countries to establish contact with moderate\nelements within and outside the Government of Iran by\nproviding these elements with arms, equipment and\nrelated materiel in order to enhance the credibility of\nthese elements in their effort to achieve a more\npro-U.S. government in Iran by demonstrating their\nability to obtain requisite resources to defend their\ncountry against Iraq and intervention by the Soviet\nUnion. This support will be discontinued if the U.S.\nGovernment learns that these elements have abandoned\ntheir goals of moderating their government and\nappropriated the materiel for purposes other than that\nprovided by this Finding.\nThe White House\nWashington, D.C.\nDate January 17, 1986\nTOP SECRETVEIL"
