EU-Kommissionspräsidentin Ursula von der Leyen will mit einem eigenen EU-Geheimdienst die Mitgliedstaaten ausspionieren.

Publisher’s rating: Diese Behauptung ist falsch. In der fraglichen EU-Debatte geht es um einen besseren Austausch von Erkenntnissen nationaler Geheimdienste.

The review says the claim misrepresents the Niinistö report, presented in Brussels on 30 October 2024. It describes the proposal as improving cooperation and information-sharing among national intelligence services, not creating an EU service to spy on member states. [S1]
