BERLIN (Reuters) - German prosecutors said on Thursday they had charged a former employee of the BND foreign intelligence agency with treason and suspect he gave secrets to both the United States and Russia up until last year.
The arrest last year of the man, identified as Markus R., chilled relations between Berlin and Washington, the closest of allies during the Cold War, and followed revelations of extensive snooping on Germany by the U.S. National Security Agency.
