Obama reassures Europe
Print Edition
President Barack Obama is reassuring Europeans that the US is not snooping through their e-mails or eavesdropping on their telephone calls.
Obama says US surveillance programs that became public knowledge after a government contractor leaked details about them are meant to help improve America’s understanding of what’s happening around the world. He acknowledged that the programs haven’t always worked as intended and said steps have been taken to “tighten them up.”
Europeans were outraged by the programs.
At a news conference yesterday on his first visit as president to Sweden, Obama assured Europeans that the US isn’t spying on them.
