Germany risks being drawn into a violent conflict with Russia, Martin Jäger, head of the Federal Intelligence Service (BND), told members of the Bundestag on Monday. He also warned that the threat of attacks on targets in Germany remains real. STVR (Minúta po minúte) ↗
Jäger described Russia as the greatest threat to Germany. According to him, Moscow is currently acting increasingly aggressively and continues its so-called shadow war. Attacks against member states of the North Atlantic Alliance are, in the BND chief's view, no longer an exception. seznamzpravy.cz ↗
The head of Germany's intelligence service also recalled the incident at Leipzig airport. Details of the event were not stated in the available information, but he placed it within the broader context of security threats facing Germany. STVR (Spravy) ↗
Jäger also said that Russia regards Germany as the main obstacle to its expansionist policy. According to him, such a perception increases the risk of further escalation and may contribute to Germany being drawn into an open violent conflict. Die Zeit ↗
German security services therefore continue to reckon with the possibility of attacks on targets on the country's territory. The statements were made at a time of heightened tension between Russia and NATO member states and suggest that Berlin considers Russian activities a long-term security challenge. ct24.ceskatelevize.cz ↗
