Retired US major alleges John F. Kennedy was killed over Soviet agent affair

New reports claim that the assassination of former US President John F. Kennedy was an “inside job” motivated by his links to a Soviet prostitute.

This dubious theory has been brought forward by a retired US Air Force Major, Ralph Ganis, which has been published by Radar Online.

Ganis claims that information about this relationship was on the verge of becoming public, which would have irreparably damaged Kennedy’s reputation. "He was sleeping with a Soviet agent. It would have handed the Soviets a high-ground moral victory at the height of the Cold War," Ganis is cited.

According to him, Kennedy was killed by “people at the top” who wanted to put “Kennedy out of his misery. There was a pending national disaster that was coming down the road," claiming that the prostitution ring involved notable lobbyists, congressmen, and senators.

The retired major further maintains that Kennedy was not shot by Lee Harvey Oswald, as is the commonly accepted theory, though the matter relating to the assassin's identity is being debated in some circles but by former French Army Captain Jean René Souetre. Ganis' theory goes so far to assert that the French miliaryman was trained by a former SS-Obersturmbannführer of Nazi Germany named Otto Skorzeny, who moved to the United States after World War II and became involved in intelligence work.

These claims surface against the backdrop of the current US administration releasing long-classified documents from the National Archives related to the assassinations of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. These materials were made public by the directive of US President Donald Trump on March 17, 2025.
