    I really hope this will be taken more seriously from now on. There is a certain political party I’d like to have thoroughly checked for Russian influence.

      There’s been imo much news lately about this stuff. Sometimes it feels as if it keeps "hanging " for a long time, and then there is an investigation , and suddenly, arrests.

      If this news has been only " the tip of the iceberg " (in Germany and probably all of Europe), like what this expert is saying, then how big is the iceberg?
