Would an interview with Valentin Falin from 1986 be useful here as an external link? Focus of conversation is nuclear weapons policy. http://openvault.wgbh.org/catalog/V_9C935351D7E2443FA1AC49509AC83C7F and http://openvault.wgbh.org/catalog/V_155D25B05CA84645878A0B59548259F7 (I helped with the site, so it would be conflict of interest for me to just add it.) (It also has a better photo of him.) Mccallucc ( talk) 16:39, 24 March 2016 (UTC) reply

Mccallucc, I've added this. As far as photographs are concerned, would your organization permit the release into the public domain of a picture of Valentin Falin? This will need confirmation by a verified email, I think. Uglemat ( talk) 08:30, 24 February 2018 (UTC) reply
