GERMANY: German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said on Friday that Russia will face consequences after accusing its military intelligence service of masterminding an “absolutely intolerable” cyberattack.
Ms Baerbock said Russian state hackers were behind last year’s attack on the Social Democrats, the leading party in the governing coalition.
She said: “We can attribute this attack to the group called APT28, which is steered by the military intelligence service of Russia.”
