the Stasi I Was Linked to British Secret Service.'" 20 Sep. 1999. [http://www.independent.co.uk]
"Professor David Childs was shocked when shown [in 1992] the bulky file on him compiled by the East German security service.... There he saw proof that another British academic had reported to East German controllers on his activities."

East German Files." 20 Sep. 1999. [http:// www.independent.co.uk]
"The unmasking of British spies and 'agents of influence' was made possible by a remarkable CIA coup -- the stealing of the secret archive of agent files of the East German spy service. In the thousands of files the Americans discovered the names of dozens of spies in the West who had worked for the East German secret service... The American coup is seen to be on a par with MI6's brilliant operation to spirit Colonel Vasili Mitrokhin and his archive out of Russia in 1992."
