The information in the report was shared with European news agencies by nine unnamed sources with access to the investigation. Danish public broadcaster Danmarks Radio (DR) released the information in collaboration with Swedish broadcaster SVT, Norway's NRK, Germany's NDR, WDR and Suddeutsche Zeitung, and France's newspaper Le Monde.

The investigation showed that the NSA used Danish information cables to spy on high-ranking officials from Germany, France, Sweden and Norway, reports said.
Apart from Ms Merkel, former German foreign minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier and former German opposition leader Peer Steinbrück were also targeted.

The Danish government reportedly knew of the collaboration between the US and its secret service by 2015. The government began collecting information on the FE's cooperation with the NSA after disclosures by whistleblower Edward Snowden in 2013, according to the NDR report.

It was clear from the gathered information that the FE had helped the NSA in spying on European leaders and also in spying operations against the US government itself, it said.
