According to the Financial Times, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Germany are among other countries that have identified agents who worked for Russia by supplying the secret services with classified documents and secret states.
The secret services of the United States and Britain have enough data and information and advise European countries when they detect suspicious movements. As the evidence shows, dozens of Russian agents are located in Germany, France and Belgium. At the same time, dozens of Russian citizens have been deported from the Baltic states and Poland in recent months on espionage charges, the paper stressed.
A senior European official told the FT that talk of Russian secret agents had been somewhat "off limits" in recent years, operating undisturbed in the West. Lately, however, Europe has been staring the problem in the face. As he says, "Democracies cannot defend themselves against the threat if the majority of citizens are not aware of the problem."
Note that European states such as Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania and Bulgaria have expelled dozens of Russian diplomats on espionage charges.
