德国内政部长亚历山大·多布林特周一警告称，德国正面临一场“影子战争”，其范围远超冷战，并表示这一威胁凸显了加强国内情报机构联邦情报局（BfV）的必要性。
German Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt warned on Monday that Germany faced a "shadow war" more far-reaching than the Cold War, and said the threat underscored the need to strengthen the country's BfV domestic intelligence agency."
“我们今天目睹的影子战争，其目标远远超出冷战时期的任何情况，”多布林特在柏林的BfV新闻发布会上说道。
The shadow war we are witnessing today has an objective that extends far beyond anything seen during the Cold War," Dobrindt said at a BfV press conference in Berlin.
许多西方国家的官员数月来一直警告称，俄罗斯正对欧洲发动破坏、网络及其他混合攻击，以削弱对乌克兰的支持。俄罗斯则称此类指控毫无依据，是反俄歇斯底里的产物。
Officials from many Western countries have warned for months that Russia is mounting sabotage, cyber and other hybrid attacks across Europe to erode support for Ukraine. Russia says such accusations are baseless and the result of anti-Russian hysteria."
“显而易见的目的就是要动摇我们——根本性地动摇我们，”多布林特说，未直接点名俄罗斯。
Its clear aim is to destabilize us – to destabilize us fundamentally," Dobrindt said, without directly naming Russia.
他的言论呼应了本月德国对外情报局（BND）局长的警告，称德国面临与莫斯科陷入武装冲突的风险。
His comments echo warnings by Germany's head of foreign intelligence, the BND, this month that Germany was at risk of entering a violent conflict with Moscow.
德国邻国捷克的安全部门周一表示，俄罗斯可能在数月内对支持乌克兰的北约成员国采取更高风险、更重大行动。所谓俄罗斯无人机袭击引发扩大德国情报权力的呼声自今年八月一起涉及装有炸药的无人机在德国机场的未遂袭击后，呼吁扩大德国情报权力的声音日益迫切，德国当局将此事件归咎于俄罗斯。
The security service of Germany's neighbor, the Czech Republic, said on Monday that Russia could resort to riskier and more significant operations in NATO member states supporting Ukraine within months. Alleged Russian drone attack drives calls to expand German intelligence powersCalls to expand Germany's intelligence powers have gained urgency since a failed attack involving an explosives-laden drone at a German airport in August, which authorities blamed on Russia.
BfV局长周一表示，俄罗斯在其混合行动中几乎动用了所有手段，包括信息误导、信息操纵、破坏以及在德国策划的暗杀阴谋。“这是我们必须面对的事实，”BfV局长西南·塞伦说。
The head of BfV said on Monday that Russia employed virtually every tool in its hybrid operations, ranging from disinformation campaigns, information manipulation and sabotage to assassination plots prepared in Germany." This is a fact we must deal with," said BfV President Sinan Selen.
在被问及被克里姆林宫称为捏造的莱比锡无人机事件时，塞伦表示，他预计此类行动会有更多出现。
Asked about the Leipzig drone incident, which the Kremlin has dismissed as fabricated, Selen said that he expected more actions of a similar nature.
政府的改革法案将赋予情报机构更广泛的权力，包括采取主动防御措施的能力，目前正处于审议阶段。德国议会委员会在九月首次审议后通过。德国寻求在日益增长的威胁中加强情报能力“在发展服务和能力方面，德国不能成为二流或三流的参与者；鉴于我们面临的挑战，我们必须保持领先，”多布林特说。
The government's reform bill, which would give intelligence services broader powers, including the ability to take active defensive measures, is currently being examined by parliamentary committees after a first reading in September. Germany seeks to strengthen intelligence capabilities amid growing threats"Germany cannot be a second- or third-rate player when it comes to developing services and capabilities; we must remain at the forefront, given the challenges we face," Dobrindt said.
二战后创建的德国情报机构，在纳粹统治记忆仍然鲜活之时成立，历来比法国、英国或美国等盟国的情报机构更受约束。
Created after World War Two, when memories of Nazi rule were still fresh, the German services have traditionally been more constrained than those of allies such as France, Britain, or the US.
