German intelligence expects Russia's intervention in parliamentary elections

35
The Federal Service for the Protection of the Constitution of Germany fears that after the hacker attacks on the Bundestag, Moscow has some confidential information, Die Welt writes. Article leads InoTV.

Four weeks before the start of the parliamentary elections in the Federal Republic of Germany, the head of German intelligence expects "unauthorized interference from Moscow," the publication said.

We assume that Russia is able to launch a campaign of disinformation during the elections to the Bundestag,
Federal Head of Service Hans-Georg Maasen told the newspaper.



However, it is still unknown whether “such events are included in the current political intentions of the Kremlin,” he noted.

There are not interested in further deterioration of relations with Germany,
added intelligence chief.

He stressed that "it is extremely difficult for the special services to find forensic evidence that Russia, for example, was behind cyber attacks on the Bundestag." The agency, however, considers Russia's involvement as “quite probable.”

In addition, Russian intelligence services are still active in Germany in reconnaissance,
declared Maasen.

User comments on the newspaper's website:

KaiL .: “All these elections are one complete disinformation campaign! Almost all the election promises of the parties will be forgotten by the beginning of negotiations on the creation of coalitions (in the Bundestag). And the rest - once again, too many conjectures in the article. "

AnnaMariaB .: “But it would be interesting what they (Russians) could find.”

U. Hanke: “Recently socks have disappeared from our washing machine. We suspect that they were Russians! ”

NahGha: “I am not an employee of the special services and I don’t know much about this area. In my opinion, however, Mr. Erdogan intervened much more in the German elections. ”

Nullachtfuffzehn: “The same chimera as in the USA. Almost a year has passed since the elections, but there is still no evidence. Here, in Germany, as in the United States, they are simply trying to take action in advance in case the real election results differ from false predictions. ”

                  In the minds of the political establishment of the heirs of Great Germany, confusion and vacillation. Almost everyone understands that following the United States is to take the same course in foreign policy — a hopeless path. But to backtrack on the issue of anti-Russian sanctions-not in German .... laughing So the "third" way is gropeded - with the uncomfortable USA and bad Russia.

                    "Germany, standing Russian in front of a pedestrian crossing and waiting for a green traffic light ..
                    There are no cars on the road early and the traffic light is already red for 10 -20 minutes (well, clearly broken ..) ..
                    An already impressive crowd of law-abiding burghers of all ages looked behind them, everyone is patiently standing ..
                    Well, I spat and went (no cars, obviously the traffic light is obviously damaged)
                    Crossing the road he looked around, the whole crowd hesitantly and sneaked followed me ..
                    Over his shoulder he shouted: "Oh, you are not enough of the Fuhrer!"

                    Essentially, they have it in the EU! laughing hi

    Russia is able to launch a disinformation campaign during the Bundestag elections,

    From this we can conclude that the Germans are going to cheat on the elections and prepare the ground for possible excuses according to the American scenario in advance. Is there really nothing more to do with pedantic Germans?

      Why is it incomprehensible?
      authorized - for example, when a black overseas lord read Merkel’s sms and listened to telephone conversations, and today nothing has changed - the chancellor will say or write something that does not correspond to the policy of the “collective West” - an old manure tub (from Marcus Wolf’s archive) is right there it will pour out where it is necessary: ​​how it served, how it wrote reports on party comrades (what kind of party was there in the GDR?)

    I don’t understand what "fuss" is about?
    Stalin on intelligence:
    In intelligence, never build work in such a way as to direct an attack on the forehead. Intelligence must be circumvented. Otherwise there will be failures, and heavy failures. Going forward is a short-sighted tactic.
    Never recruit a foreigner in such a way that his patriotic feelings are infringed. No need to recruit a foreigner against his fatherland. If an agent is recruited with an infringement of patriotic feelings - it will be an unreliable agent. Completely eliminate the stencil from reconnaissance. All the time to change tactics, methods. Adapt to the global environment all the time. Use the global environment. Conduct a maneuverable, reasonable attack. Use what God gives us. Most importantly, intelligence must learn to admit their mistakes. A person first admits his failures and mistakes, and only then he recovers. Take where weak, where poorly guarded. Correction of intelligence is necessary, first of all, from the elimination of a frontal attack. Our main enemy is America. But the main emphasis should not be placed on America itself. Illegal residencies must be created primarily in the border states. The first base where you need to have your own people is West Germany. One cannot be naive in politics, but especially one cannot be naive in intelligence. An agent must not be given instructions for which he is not prepared, which will disorganize him morally. In intelligence, to have agents with a great cultural outlook - professors (for example, in the days of the underground they sent a man to France to deal with the situation in Menshevik organizations, and he alone did more than a dozen others). Intelligence is a holy, ideal business for us. One must gain credibility. There should be several hundred human friends in intelligence (this is more than agents) who are ready to fulfill any of our tasks. Communists who ask obliquely at intelligence, at the work of the Cheka, who are afraid of getting dirty, must be thrown headlong into the well. Agents have not tots, but friends - the highest class intelligence. The file service, in my opinion, should be broken down into different departments. "



    When such people talk about intelligence. Should we refuse her?

    And what? Everyone is conducting intelligence work with someone in the country. Common practice. Look, even the Merikos are watching over their NATO friends.
    Four weeks before the start of the parliamentary elections in the Federal Republic of Germany, the head of German intelligence expects "unauthorized interference from Moscow," the publication said.
    And what in only four weeks? Ours have been operating there for a long time. It’s even a shame to read this about my specialists.
    German intelligence expects Russia's intervention in parliamentary elections

    "The Federal Service for the Protection of the Constitution of Germany fears" - What is going on in the world, if the whole federal service fears? Ready to scatter: who's where! Some kind of universal epidemic of anxiety and fear of everything and everyone. If this goes on, then soon NATO forces will run home because of all kinds of "fears!" And the armament and material values ​​- both that and another refugees will take away.

    And they say that idiocy is not a contagious disease! Very contagious, how fast it flies across the oceans! What kind of informational interference in the election? Who is there to change whom? Grandma Merkel, on the second year of Schultz? So they have a very similar twist in their heads at the expense of Russia. Both that and the other in the closet are full of skeletons from early times, because their World behind the scenes brings the Nanai boys into a fight! Which of these "Nanai boys" should Russia help and why? Uncle Volodya is by no means stupid to interfere in this cesspool.
