Revealed: NSA Conducted Massive Economic Espionage Against France
New documents released by WikiLeaks reveal that the NSA's spying program delved even deeper into the French economy and politics, eavesdropping on government ministers. The news comes only days after it was revealed that the US spied on three French presidential administrations.
In addition to spying on current President Francois Hollande and the two previous administrations of Nicolas Sarkozy and Jacques Chirac, new documents released by WikiLeaks reveal that the National Security Agency also monitored French government ministers, diplomats, and other senior officials. The documents also note that the US has spied on every major French company.
"The United States has been conducting economic espionage against France for more than a decade," WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange said. "Not only has it spied on the French Finance Minister, it has ordered the interception of every French company contract or negotiation valued at more than $200 million."
DETAILS TO FOLLOW.
