It is noted that a representative of the prosecutor's office said that German law enforcement agencies will try to find out who could have been behind the organization of the wiretapping and whether there was an attempt at espionage.
Addendum
The February 19 Internet conference call of high-ranking Air Force officers, allegedly overheard by the Russians, was about preparing a 30-minute briefing for Defense Minister Borys Pistorius on the possibility of a Taurus mission in Ukraine.
The officers openly talk about, among other things, the fact that American and British military personnel are operating in Ukraine and discuss the possibility of training Ukrainian personnel in Germany for the Taurus mission.
The German Ministry of Defense confirmed the authenticity of the intercepted conversation between the Air Force officers, but could not confirm the accuracy of the details discussed due to possible changes.
