In Germany, they announced an exaggeration of the accusations of the Russian Federation in hacker attacks on Europe

The accusations of Russia's involvement in all hacker attacks on European infrastructure are an exaggeration. This was announced on January 26 by German Foreign Minister Johann Vadefuhl.

"Just last week, we received information from the Federal Bank of Germany that they are experiencing 5,000 hacker attacks per minute, and that more than 2 billion attacks on IT systems occur in Germany every year. This is an almost unimaginable figure," the German Foreign minister said at a joint press conference with the Latvian Foreign Minister.

In addition, he stressed that Germany cannot link these attacks with Russia.
