It happens on all sides. During the cold war the fact that both sides had spies and reported what the secret intentions were of their opponents eg: USSR did not intend to attack the West or NATO and the West or NATO would not make a pre-emptive attack against the Warsaw Pact and the USSR

A British national working at the UK embassy in Berlin has been arrested on suspicion of passing documents to Russian spies in exchange for cash.

Prosecutors said the apartment and workplace of the man had been searched after he was detained yesterday in Potsdam, just outside the German capital.

He is suspected of colluding with the Russian intelligence service since at least November.

The suspect has been identified only as David S, in keeping with the country’s privacy laws.

He will be brought before a judge later today who will decide on how he will be detained before his trial.

In a statement, the chief deferal prosecutor’s office said: ‘On at least one occasion, he passed on documents he had obtained in the course of his professional activities to a representative of a Russian intelligence service.
