    Germany security report: Number of right-wing extremists sharply rose in 2019

    Right-wing extremism increased in Germany last year, the country's domestic intelligence agency has reported, with over 32,000 extremists identified. The report also found that more suspects are prepared to use violence.



    Right-wing extremism poses the biggest threat to security in Germany, the country's interior minister said Thursday at the presentation of the 2019 report by Germany's domestic intelligence agency.

    In Berlin, Interior Minister Horst Seehofer and the head of Germany's Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV) Thomas Haldenwang presented the organization's most recent findings, which showed that right-wing extremism in Germany sharply increased last year.

    According to the report, the BfV identified 32,080 right-wing extremists in Germany in 2019, up from 24,100 the year before.

    The BfV classified 13,000 of these cases as prepared to use violence, 300 more than in 2018.

    Right-wing extremism, racism, and anti-Semitism continue to increase in Germany, Seehofer said.

    "These areas are the biggest threat to security in Germany," he said.

    Former AfD faction boosts extremist numbers

    Seehofer pointed to government action over the last year, saying no other government in Germany had done so much to fight far-right extremism.

    In recent months, several extreme far-right organizations were banned for views or activities deemed anti-constitutional.

    For the first time this year, the BfV report also reviewed the activities and member of the radical "Flügel", or Wing, faction of Germany's far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party.

    The controversial faction officially disbanded earlier this year after the BfV put the group under surveillance. But the agency estimates there remains a membership of around 7,000 individuals, some 20% of the AfD.

    This accounts for a significant share of the increase in right-wing extremists recorded by the BfV in 2019.

    "Racism and anti-Semitism emerge to a very considerable degree out of right-wing extremism," Seehofer said. "Over 90% of anti-Semitic incidents can be traced back to right-wing extremism. And therefore it is not an exaggeration to say this is the biggest security policy concern in our country."

    Left-wing extremism also on the rise

    The report also noted an uptick in left-wing extremists, logging 33,500 extremists from the far-left spectrum in 2019 compared to 32,000 the year before.

    "Characteristic of the left-wing extremist scene is its pronounced heterogeneity," the report said. "The left-wing extremist scene can be divided into two camps — violent and non-violent left-wing extremists."

    The BfV recorded 6,449 criminal acts motivated by left-wing extremism in 2019, up from 4,622 in 2018, a near 40% increase. Just over 900 of these crimes were considered violent.

    Islamic terrorism also remains a significant threat, the report found.

    "The danger of [Islamic] terrorism in Germany is still very high," Seehofer said, adding that the BfV had identified nearly 650 cases of the threat of Islamic terror last year.

    Attacks and planned attacks in Germany and Europe are, however, declining overall, the report said.

    Breaking the trend

    BfV head Haldenwang noted that the coronavirus crisis had pushed recent right-wing attacks in Germany out of the news cycle, but said the security agency continued in its work preventing such events.

    Among far-right extremists there exists a "competition" as to which attack can result in the highest number of victims, Haldenwang said.

    "We're talking about breaking a 'high score' of number of victims," he said. "We have to break this trend."

    To this end, Haldenwang called on the media to resist putting too much focus on the perpetrators of terrorist attacks.

    Spain's Catalonia region imposes strict mask regulation

    The Spanish region of Catalonia has become the first to extend a nationwide directive on wearing masks in public, making it mandatory at all distances. Officials say the move comes amid a drop in mask-wearing discipline.



    An order making face masks fully mandatory in public went into force in Spain's northeastern region of Catalonia on Thursday, with those violating the regulation facing fines of €100 ($113).

    The order was announced on Wednesday, four days after more than 200,000 people in the Segria area were placed under lockdown following a number of coronavirus outbreaks there.

    Masks are mandatory across all of Spain in shared indoor spaces and outdoors as well when 1.5 meters (5 feet) of physical distance cannot be maintained, but Catalonia is the first region to make the wearing of masks compulsory in all situations regardless of distance.

    Shortly afterward, the Basque town of Ordizia also imposed a similar regulation after a cluster of nearly 50 cases was discovered there.

    Decline in face mask use

    Catalonia, which has a population of 7.5 million, has seen the biggest increase in confirmed new cases of any region in Spain since a nationwide lockdown was lifted in mid-June.

    Health authorities in the region have warned that hospitals are filling up and could soon be overwhelmed.

    Officials said the tighter measures were aimed at combating a noticeable decline in the use of face masks by some citizens.

    Spain is one of the worst-hit European countries, with nearly 270,000 infections and more than 28,000 deaths.

    After initial doubts on the part of some health authorities, the wearing of face masks in public is now considered an important measure in stemming the spread of the coronavirus, which has killed at least half a million people worldwide.

    Angela Merkel's press office suspected of spying for Egypt

    A man suspected of spying for Egypt was working in the German government press office until December 2019. Authorities believe Egypt recruits individuals to spy on opposition groups living in Germany.



    An employee of Germany's Federal Press Office was found to have worked for an Egyptian secret service for years, according to a report presented on Thursday by Interior Minister Horst Seehofer.

    "We are not commenting on ongoing investigations or on personnel matters," said Steffen Seibert, Chancellor Angela Merkel's spokesman and the head of the Federal Press Office.

    The man is said to have been working for the visitor service of the press office as a mid-level employee, according to the German daily Bild. This means he would have completed an exam and at least two years of vocational training to obtain the job.

    According to the report, German police carried out "executive measures" against the man in December 2019. The premises of the visitor service were searched as part of the investigation, Bild reported.

    The Federal Public Prosecutor confirmed that the man was charged for suspicion of espionage and that the investigation is still ongoing.

    "There are indications that Egyptian services are trying to recruit Egyptians living in Germany for intelligence purposes through their visits to Egyptian diplomatic missions in Germany and their trips to Egypt," the report said.

    The German government believes that Egyptian secret services seek to gather information about Egyptians living in Germany who may be members of the Muslim Brotherhood, but also members of the Coptic Christian community.

    Egypt has been ruled by the military since 1952, with a brief interlude in 2012 when Mohammed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood was elected president before being deposed by current President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi. in 2013.

    The case of the suspected Egyptian spy was part of a report presented in Berlin by Interior Minister Horst Seehofer, whose key findings showed that right-wing extremism in Germany had sharply increased last year.

    U.S. slaps French goods with 25% duties in digital tax row, but delays effective date


    WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Trump administration on Friday announced additional duties of 25% on French cosmetics, handbags and other imports valued at $1.3 billion in response to France’s digital services tax, but would hold off on implementing the move for up to 180 days.

    The U.S. Trade Representative’s office said delaying the start of the tariffs would allow further time to resolve the issue, including through discussions in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The decision also reflected France’s agreement to defer collection of its 3% tax on digital services.

    The U.S. move follows a U.S. Section 301 probe, which concluded the French tax discriminates against U.S. tech firms such as Google (GOOG.O), Facebook (FB.O) and Apple Inc (AAPL.O).

    France and other countries view digital service taxes as a way to raise revenue from the local operations of big tech companies which they say profit enormously from local markets while making only limited contributions to public coffers.

    U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer first disclosed on Thursday plans to impose new tariffs on French goods with deferred implementation. The $1.3 billion worth of goods is part of a list first published by USTR in December.

    The United States has initiated similar Section 301 investigations of digital services taxes adopted or being considered by 10 other countries, including Britain, India and Turkey, which could result in tariffs against their goods.

    OECD talks aimed at developing a multilateral solution for taxing digital services have failed to produce any results, with negotiations complicated by the coronavirus pandemic.

    Last month, U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin caught European countries by surprise when he suggested a pause in the OECD talks given the lack of progress there.

    A spokesman for the European Union told Reuters earlier that Brussels could propose its own solution if the OECD talks failed to produce an agreement. He urged Washington to resume the talks.

    UK to launch post-Brexit points-based immigration system and reinforce border

    The UK government has said it intends to regain control of its borders and reduce low-skilled migration. London also said it will spend nearly €800 million on border infrastructure to intensify checks and regulation.



    The UK on Sunday announced plans to introduce a post-Brexit, points-based immigration system so that it an "take back control of its borders and unleash the country's full potential."

    Home Secretary Priti Patel said the new system will apply from January 1, when the UK ends its 11-month transition following its official departure from the European Union.

    Post-Brexit UK will be "a sovereign nation with an immigration system that attracts the best from all over the world," Patel wrote in British newspaper The Sun.

    The government has vowed to cut back on low-skilled migration and instead entice skilled English-speaking professionals such as "scientists" and "innovators" with confirmed job offers.

    "We are cutting red tape and giving businesses more freedom to hire people from across the globe," said Patel, adding that the UK government was following a "clear instruction to take back control of our borders" in the 2016 Brexit referendum.

    Opposition Labour Party's shadow home secretary, Nick Thomas-Symonds, warned that the government had "rushed through immigration legislation with very little detail in the middle of a global pandemic."

    Multimillion-dollar UK-EU border control system

    The UK government has also announced almost £705 million (Є788 million, $890 million) in funding for a new border infrastructure system to prepare for checks and controls and help keep trade flowing from January onwards.

    Cabinet chief Michael Gove said the funding includes £470 million to build port and inland infrastructure, including in the southeast of England to allow major freight crossings to France. There are also plans for new border posts, improved IT systems and recruitment of 500 new staff to deal with the impact of the UK's departure from the EU's Customs Union.

    In a letter to Gove, leaked to the media this week, International Trade Minister Liz Truss expressed concern that border infrastructure would be delayed, citing disruption caused by the coronavirus pandemic.

    She warned that the delay in imposing checks could trigger a legal obstacle at the World Trade Organization, adding: "I would like assurances that we are able to deliver full controls at these ports by July 2021."

    When asked whether the UK's borders would be ready and secure by the end of the year, Gove told local media: "I am absolutely certain that everything that we do is compliant with the law, indeed is designed to ensure that we cannot just comply with the law and keep people safe, but also facilitate trade as well."

    The Conservative Party politician also added that more information concerning the implementation of the Northern Ireland protocol will be released "later this month." The border between the UK's Northern Ireland and EU-member state Ireland will be subject to specific guidance.

    German police capture 'Black Forest Rambo' after six-day manhunt
    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/jul/17/german-police-capture-black-forest-rambo-after-six-day-manhunt

    The man, named by police as Yves Rausch, had been on the run since last Sunday morning, after holding up four officers and stealing their firearms in what his mother claims was a moment of “panic”.

    After several days of searching for Yves Rausch, who had gone underground in the woods around Oppenau, the police succeeded in making a provisional arrest of the 31-year-old,” said police in a statement on Friday. Four firearms were also seized in the operation.


    Police had been called to a forest hut on the outskirts of Oppenau, in Baden-Württemberg, after sightings of a “suspicious” figure in combat gear and carrying a bow and arrows, but were caught off guard when the man pulled a gun on them.


    A 200-strong police unit has spent the last five days searching the forest, using helicopters, thermal detectors and sniffer dogs to scope out derelict buildings, caves and old bunkers – to no avail.


    According to Der Spiegel magazine, Rausch was convicted of “incitement of the people” as a 15-year-old, after doctoring a sign on a building to read “Jews away”. In 2010, he was sentenced to three and a half years in prison for grievous bodily harm, after shooting an acquaintance with a crossbow.

    Police in Germany have too much access to personal online data, top court says


    Germany's Constitutional Court has ruled that current police access to personal data from phone and internet users is unconstitutional. Two groups, one with more than 6,000 supporters, argued their rights were breached.



    Germany's top court on Friday ruled that police and intelligence officials have excessive access to personal data on mobile phone and internet users, a decision that will make it more difficult for investigators to access private information held on digital devices and accounts.

    The Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe ruled that several regulations that allowed access to so-called "inventory data," which includes internet and mobile users' names and birth dates, were unconstitutional.

    In a press release on its website, the court said that current law violates users' "fundamental rights to informational self-determination and to the protection of telecommunications secrecy."

    The court said that while accessing such data is generally permissible under German constitutional law, "transmission and retrieval regulations must sufficiently limit the purposes for which the data is used."

    Lack of 'concrete danger'

    "The Senate has made it clear that the general powers to transmit and retrieve inventory data...generally require a concrete danger present in the individual case and an initial suspicion for criminal prosecution," it said.

    In the eyes of the court, authorities had been allowed to access data for causes that did not meet the threshold of legal interest.

    The ruling means that Germany's Telecommunications Act and several other laws will need to be revised.

    Data used to prevent terrorist attacks

    The current law allows Germany's federal police to query personal data during criminal investigations, though they are limited from accessing data showing connections with other users.

    Investigators are also permitted to request further data from telephone and telecommunication companies as well as from hospitals and hotels. Law enforcement authorities use private data to solve crimes and prevent acts of terror.

    The Constitutional Court had largely upheld the practice in a ruling in 2012. Judges determined that the increasing importance of electronic communication meant law enforcement required the "simplest possible method for tracing telephone numbers to individuals."

    However, they also ruled that an existing telecommunications act was too liberal in the access it permitted, prompting revisions.

    Privacy activists push back

    Friday's ruling was in response to two lawsuits that had sought to limit data access to serious crimes only.

    In one of the complaints, plaintiffs argued that the current telecommunications act gave police even easier access to personal data and on a larger scale. Investigators could, for example, often circumvent the need for a judge's approval in accessing e-mail account passwords or the PIN numbers of mobile phones.

    Every Internet user can also be identified by name at any time using the IP address.

    The suit, brought by over 6,000 plaintiffs, was filed in 2013 by the current European Pirate Party politician Patrick Breyer and former party colleague Katharina Nocun. The Pirate Party champions Internet and data protection rights.

    Germany's data protection commission had also expressed disapproval at allowing access to such information in the case of administrative offenses or more abstract threats.

    Influence in fight against online hate speech

    The ruling is likely to influence the application of a new law in Germany that aims to combat right-wing extremism and hate crime on the Internet, .

    The measure will require social networks such as Facebook and Twitter to disclose IP addresses to identify users who post neo-Nazi propaganda, incite people to violence, or make threats of murder or rape.

    In serious cases such as terrorism and homicides, a judge's decision will also allow access to passwords.

    'Knee-on-neck' arrest man 'owed an apology', says lawyer



    WhatsApp - on social media appears to show an officer with his knee on a man's head during an arrest

    A man who was detained while a police officer appeared to kneel on his neck should be given a formal apology, his lawyer has said.

    Marcus Coutain, 48, was filmed telling officers "get off my neck" as he was arrested north London on Thursday.

    His lawyer Tim Rustem said the events "mirrored almost identically what happened to George Floyd", who died after being restrained in the US.

    One Met officer has been suspended and another placed on restricted duties.

    The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) is conducting an investigation.

    On Saturday, Mr Coutain pleaded not guilty at Highbury Corner Magistrates' Court to possessing a knife in public.

    Speaking outside court, Mr Rustem said the Crown Prosecution Service should review the case, drop the charges and offer a "formal apology" to Mr Coutain.

    Mr Rustem said his client was legally carrying a blade for the purposes of repairing his bicycle.

    "Essentially Mr Coutain was stopped and searched for matters for which he has not been charged," he said.

    "It is the use of what I would regard as excessive force, a knee being placed on his neck ... references which mirror exactly what happened to George Floyd in America.

    "A man saying 'I can't breathe' and 'get your knee off my neck', while he was already handcuffed and while he was restrained by two police officers."

    He said his client was lucky to have only "minimal" injuries to his wrists and neck, adding: "Fortunately it didn't lead to the tragic consequences that we saw in America."

    Deputy Commissioner Sir Steve House described footage of the arrest in Islington as "deeply disturbing" and said some of the techniques, which were "not taught in police training", caused him "great concern".

    In Islington, about 30 people gathered outside the police station in protest against how Mr Coutain was arrested.

    The case has been sent to Snaresbrook Crown Court on 17 August.
