I think that @HistoPol would be a better source to ask this:
"My question is….how did they get classified documents? They should be in jail for even receiving them let alone disseminating the info."
I'll add that with all of the weaponized disinfo being thrown at us during this hybrid war that we should not come to conclusions on this kind of stuff too early in investigation.

#Europe is not the #US. In several countries, including #Germany, an independent press serves as an important Fourth Estate in the system of checks and balances.
Some #German newspapers, such as the #SüddeutscheZeitung, are part of an international cross-media...

I am positive that the former #KGB agent was an avoid student of #SunTzu.
And now, let's ask the decisi ve question of the evening:

...IF bribery was only attempted and NO other key personnel at the #CDU and #SPD were really involved, *why are both parties stonewalling?!?*
Finally, YES, this is a matter of #NationalSecurity (or rather #EUsecurity.) HOWEVER, the current (scarce, admittedly) evidence rather seems to suggest that the political leaders might have been *knowingly* endangering EU security.
Therefore, a...

...complete official investigation with full access rights is, in my view, essential.
If a public official committed high treason, we all need to know and they need to be held to account, in #Europe, #America, and elsewhere.
