Germany asks top US intelligence official to leave the country

“Diplomatic relations between Germany and the US plunged to a new low after Angela Merkel’s government asked the top representative of America’s secret services in Germany to leave the country.  According to Süddeutsche Zeitung, the US embassy staffer who has been asked to leave is a CIA ‘chief of station’ who coordinates secret service activity in Germany, and who emerged as the key contact for two German officials recently arrested for allegedly spying for the US.  According to German media reports, such drastic action had previously only been thinkable when dealing with ‘pariah states like North Korea or Iran’.”
