  7.  @Kevin_Kennelly  - Some parts of the archives have not been opened, since they would upset certain (a)historical narratives to the detriment of certain currently very powerful groups. Whether Putin is an ally of these groups, or is using the threat of releasing certain information as protection from them is hard to say.
