Turkey’s aggressive spying campaign in foreign countries persists without signs of abating

The document marked secret & obtained by Nordic Monitor was issued by the Security General Directorate & exposes a worldwide espionage network run by MIT

Newsroom August 4 06:19

In a clear indication of Turkey’s expanded spying activities abroad and its strengthened efforts to gather information on opposition groups, a confidential document issued by the government in early June has revealed that hundreds of dissidents have become targets of Turkey’s notorious intelligence agency, MIT.

The document, marked secret and obtained by Nordic Monitor, was issued by the Security General Directorate (Emniyet) on June 6, 2023 and exposes a worldwide espionage network, apparently run by MIT, with the purpose of targeting a group that is critical of the government of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Furthermore, the document highlights the fact that Turkey is not deterred by the warnings and concerns communicated by other countries, which asked the Erdogan government to cease and desist from carrying out covert operations on their territories.
