Officials linked to energy supply suspected of trying to obstruct economic policies, reports Die Zeit

Germany’s domestic intelligence agency is investigating allegations that two senior civil servants working in the economy ministry could have been spying for Russia, according to a local media report.

Die Zeit said it was aware of the names and pay grades of the officials under suspicion, but it was not at liberty to publish them. The employees have been described as holding a “pro-Russia stance” and are suspected of having sought to obstruct the policies of the economy minister, Robert Habeck, over the past few months.

Die Zeit suggested that the officials who would have worked on the pipeline project under Habeck’s predecessor, Peter Altmaier, who referred to it as a “sovereign national energy provision project”, could have struggled to accept the German administration’s U-turn when the scheme was scrapped in February.
