New US Intelligence Chief for Cuba and Venezuela

US Intelligence Chief John Negroponte appointed Norman Bailey as “Mission Manager” for Cuba and Venezuela. Negroponte’s announcement does not state the aims of the designation nor its ties to a secret annex contained in the Bush Plan against the island.

Bailey is charged with the task of “leading the Intelligence Community at a strategic level, by integrating collection and analysis of data, identifying and filling gaps in intelligence and planning and ensuring the implementation of strategies.”
