Angela Merkel said she had \u201chard evidence\u201d that Russia was responsible for an \u201coutrageous\u201d cyber attack on the German parliament.<\/p>\n

Answering questions in the Bundestag on Wednesday, the German chancellor said the hacking attack, which occurred in 2015 and also targeted her own parliamentary email account, \u201cobviously disturbs a trustful cooperation\u201d with Russia.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can honestly say that it hurts me,\u201d Merkel said in reply to a question from Green MP Tabea R\u00f6\u00dfner. \u201cOn the one hand, I try to improve relations with Russia on a daily basis, and when then, on the other hand, we see that there is hard evidence that Russian forces are operating in such a way, then we are working in a field of tension, which is something that \u2014 despite the desire for good relations with Russia \u2014 I cannot completely erase from my heart,\u201d Merkel said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is unpleasant \u2026 and I also find it outrageous,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

The cyber attack in spring 2015 reportedly caused the theft of more than 16 gigabytes of data, including confidential emails from lawmakers.<\/p>\n

German media reported<\/a> last week that the federal prosecutors office had issued an international arrest warrant against Dmitriy Badin, reportedly a 29-year-old Russian hacker working for Moscows military intelligence service GRU, in relation to the cyber attack.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very glad that the investigations have now led to the Federal Public Prosecutor putting a specific person on the wanted list,\u201d Merkel said. \u201cI take these things very seriously, because I believe that a very proper investigation has been carried out.\u201d<\/p>\n

The chancellor said Russia was pursuing \u201ca strategy of hybrid warfare,\u201d including disinformation and the distortion of facts, \u201cwhich we have to take into account and which we cannot simply ignore.\u201d<\/p>\n
