LONDON The Guardian is quoting documents leaked by Edward Snowden to report that U.S. intelligence officials were spying on 38 targets in 2010. In one of the leaked documents, the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) said that U.S. intelligence had targeted foreign embassies and missions at the UN by planting bugs in electronic communication devices and fixed phones to monitor communications using specialized antennas. U.S. spied on EU targets, more leaked documents reveal This type of spying went on at the embassies of France, Italy and Greece in Washington, while Japan, Mexico, South Korea, India and Turkey are listed as "subjects" of wiretaping operations in a document dating from 2010, the AFP reported. German weekly Der Spiegel has previously revealed that the European Union was one of the targets of Washington's extensive internet spying program, along with bugs implanted in the offices of the EU in Brussels and representative offices in the United States. The head of the European diplomacy, Catherine Ashton, asked Washington to react to these allegations and added that she was told that she will receive her answers "soon." Authorities in Washington recently issued an arrest warrant for a former CIA employee and NSA contractor Edward Snowden, who leaked the documents to the public.
