Spy suspect swap appears in works BY CALVIN WOODWARD and VLADIMIR ISACHENKOV Associated Press WASHINGTON U.S. and Russian officials met secretively on two continents Wednesday in a likely prelude to one of the largest swaps of accused spies in decades, a Cold War remix showing the high-stakes race for covert intelligence between East and West endures in the new century. Five suspects charged with spying in the U.S. were hurriedly ordered to New York, joining five others already behind bars there, after a Russian arms-control researcher convicted of spying for the West came out of the cold of his forlorn penal colony by the Arctic Circle and was transferred to Moscow. Researcher Igor Sutyagin signed a confession even while continuing to assert his innocence, his brother said, describing that event as one in a series laying the groundwork for Russia to release him and others accused of espionage in exchange for members of an alleged spy ring broken in the U.S.

Officials in neither country would confirm a swap was in the works. But the machinations including a meeting in Washington between U.S. officials and the Russian ambassador had all the hallmarks as the two former Cold War antagonists moved to tamp down tensions stirred by the U.S. arrests. The trade could be the largest since 25 prisoners in Poland and East Germany and four in the United States were exchanged in 1985, the convicted or accused spies leaving their captors on the Glienecke Bridge between East Germany and West Berlin in the waning years of the Soviet Bloc.

Rudolph Abel in 1962. Prosecutors said for the past decade the alleged Russian spies, while passing as everyday people in suburbia and elsewhere, engaged in secret global travel with false passports, secret code words, fake names, invisible ink and encrypted radio messages. In Russia, Dmitry Sutyagin said his brother, serving a 14- year prison term, was told he was among convicted spies who were to be exchanged for Russians arrested by the FBI. He said his brother could be taken to Vienna, then London, for his freedom as early as Thursday. The imprisoned Sutyagin said Russian officials had shown him a list of 11 people who could be included in the swap.

His brother said Sutyagin remembered only one other person on the list Sergei Skripal, a colonel in Russian military intelligence who in 2006 was sentenced to 13 years on charges of spying for Britain. Sutyagin said he had been forced to sign a confession, although he maintains his innocence and does not want to leave Russia, his homeland, his brother said. "For him this all was a huge shock, totally unexpected," his brother said at a news conference. "For the first time in all these years I see him so depressed. He is mostly upset because of two things: He had to sign that paper, basically admit his guilt, and that he has to leave the country." Despite the tight official lid on developments, the urgency of getting defendants to New York was clear.

The sooner defendants could plead to charges filed in New York, the sooner any exchange could move ahead. In Boston, U.S. Magistrate Judge Marianne Bowler presided over a hearing for two defendants that lasted barely a minute and was convened, the judge said, "on rather short notice." The defendants' lawyers said the suspects were eager to get to New York to face charges. In Virginia, where three other accused spies were held, a hearing was canceled and they were dispatched to New York as well. Sutyagin, who worked as an arms control and military analyst at the Moscow-based U.S.A.

and Canada Institute, a think tank, was arrested in 1999 and convicted in 2004 on charges of passing information on nuclear submarines and other weapons to a British company that investigators claimed was a CIA cover. Sutyagin has all along denied that he was spying. The Spectrum Daily News Published at: 275 E. St. George Blvd.
