Germania acordă serviciilor de informații noi competențe semnificative, în contextul amenințării hibride din ce în ce mai mari din partea Rusiei

The German government is reforming its foreign intelligence agency to enhance its capabilities against rising threats, particularly from Russia. Proposed changes would allow the BND to conduct sabotage, offensive cyber operations, and more aggressive espionage. This shift comes in response to increasing hybrid threats and a need for Germany to rely less on foreign intelligence. The reforms, which require parliamentary approval, aim to adapt to new security challenges and improve operational effectiveness. The BND's budget is also set to increase significantly.
