'I can honestly say that it pains me. Every day I try to build a better relationship with Russia and on the other hand there is such hard evidence that Russian forces are doing this,' says German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
"I can honestly say that it pains me. Every day I try to build a better relationship with Russia and on the other hand there is such hard evidence that Russian forces are doing this," she told parliament.
German media reported that among information copied by hackers in 2015 was data from Merkel's email account. That attack also targeted the Bundestag."Unfortunately the conclusion I have reached is that this is not new," she said, noting that"cyber-disorientation, the distortion of facts" were all part of"Russia's strategy."
According to Spiegel magazine, hackers managed to completely copy two of Merkel's email accounts containing correspondence dating between 2012 and 2015.
