Confusion in Germany as Chancellor Angela Merkel look up to
the United Kingdom for security aid to combat the increasing terrorists attack
in her country. The move according to report has instigated the anger of
Germany’s security chiefs.
Merkel’s approach concerning the security issue has angered
the German spies, because she they feel they are not being trusted enough to be
able to deal with the situation. According to a reliable source: "In 12
years she has not once attended one of the weekly security briefings for her
government.
"Why does she travel to England then? Does she not
trust her own people anymore?"
It was reported that former PM David Cameron made the
arrangement that brought about the meeting she had intelligence chiefs at
Chequers in October 2015. Present in that meeting were Andrew Parker of MI5,
Alex Younger, chief of the global foreign intelligence service MI6 and GCHQ's
Robert Hannigan.
Surprisingly, it was revealed that the German authorities
had no knowledge of the gathering where Mrs Merkel gave the UK a report from
her own BND foreign intelligence agency a report which has details about President
Putin and the situation in Crimea by way of thanks for their briefing.
British and German spymasters have had soured relationship
lately, due to the doubt London has developed against Berlin, saying it cannot
be trusted with intelligence reports.
At a time of escalating Islamic terror threats across Europe
the German BND is being frozen out by GCHQ and the NSA in America.
Accordingly, both London and Washington believe insecure
German data servers have led to the leaking of tens of thousands of classified
documents to the Wikileaks whistleblower platform.
They also refuse to hand over secret intelligence data demanded
by left wing and Green politicians in Germany which they fear will be aired in
parliament.
A source said: "It has now reached the point where
there is virtual radio silence between the two biggest and most important
intelligence services of the western world and the BND of Germany.
"Germany is worried because it needs the umbrella
protection of these agencies. It is virtually blind without it."
