Soviet Defector Pirogov Ruled Ineligible for Citizenship
Peter Pirogov, a Soviet air force officer who defected to the United States with Anatole Barzov in October 1948, settled in Alexandria Virginia and later faced citizenship rejection due to Communist Party membership. Barzov was reportedly lured back to Russia by Mashkantzev and was said to have been executed. Newsweek reported repeated expulsions of Soviet diplomats for attempting to repatriate refugees.
