Român acuzat de spionaj, arestat în Germania. Anunțul MAE

The Romanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs responded to the arrest of a Romanian citizen in Germany, accused of espionage related to a plot to assassinate a drone manufacturer CEO. The arrest was based on a warrant from the Federal Court of Justice in Germany. The Romanian consulate has not received any requests for consular assistance from the arrested individual or their family. Investigations revealed that Russian intelligence orchestrated the assassination plot against Stefan Thumann, involving two foreign agents who gathered classified information and conducted reconnaissance. Both were arrested in March, with the case being treated as a planned assassination attempt.
