A German intelligence report released on Wednesday asserted that the Islamic Republic of Iran, China and Russia are the chief culprits of illegal surveillance in the federal republic.

According to the intelligence report of the state of Brandenburg that was reviewed by The Jerusalem Post, “The main actors in espionage activities in the Federal Republic of Germany are still the Russian Federation, the People’s Republic of China and Iran.”

The report also noted that Turkey’s government spies on opponents of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s Islamic regime.

Iran’s regime has conducted illicit proliferation activities in Germany since the 2015 Iran nuclear deal was reached with Tehran. In exchange for Tehran agreeing to curbs on its nuclear program, the world powers, including Germany, provided considerable economic sanctions relief to Iran.

The Post reported in May that a German state intelligence report from Bavaria said Iran is “making efforts to expand its conventional arsenal of weapons with weapons of mass destruction.”
