A 41-year-old U.S. Army officer assigned to NATO’s Allied Rapid Reaction Corps was arrested near Gloucester, England, on suspicion of helping a foreign intelligence service and obtaining or disclosing protected information. British counterterrorism police worked with the FBI and U.S. military on the arrest. The suspect’s name hasn’t been released, and authorities haven’t publicly detailed what information he allegedly tried to obtain or whether anything reached Russia. The Washington Post, citing officials familiar with the investigation, reported that no sensitive information had been passed to Moscow, suggesting investigators may have been watching him before making the arrest. He was assigned to Imjin Barracks, the NATO unit’s headquarters. This isn’t an allegation against some random contractor with access to an old filing cabinet. It’s an American officer serving inside a NATO command structure.
