New agents recruited
The purpose of this is to win insider's informations about current debates. If possible, the agents are also supposed to recruit other persons with promising professional perspectives for secret operations.
Great interest in energy policy
The government in Moscow under former secret service officer Vladimir Putin is interested, above all, in internal informations about German politics. Also economic strategies as for example in the energy sector would be transmitted to Moscow, the report is cited.
Russians as actively as nobody else
Germany is 18 years after the fall of the iron curtain still the most important reconnaissance target in Europe, according to the report with reference to knowledge of the Verfassungsschutz. Furthermore there are no other foreign secret services which are so active in Germany like the Russian agencies.
