US monitored 60 million calls in Spain
A Spanish newspaper published a document Monday that it said
shows the U.S. National Security Agency spied on more than 60 million phone
calls in Spain in one month. Last week the French paper Le Monde reported
similar allegations of U.S. spying in France and German magazine Der Spiegel
said Washington had tapped Chancellor Angela Merkel's mobile phone. The El
Mundo newspaper report came as Spain summoned the U.S. ambassador in Madrid to
express its displeasure over the reports of spying on allies. El Mundo said the
Metadata system used by the NSA could also monitor emails and phone texts,
although these were not shown on the graph. The newspaper said the document was
one those leaked by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden.
