Merkel: 'Stasi is not NSA' - European anger over spying turns inward - The Washington Post

Merkel:
“I want to say to our American partners that on German soil, German law always applies, and we will enforce it,” Merkel said Tuesday in a speech to an industry convention in Cologne. Earlier, referring to the Ministry of State Security, the secret police agency better known as Stasi, under the former German Democratic Republic, she had said that “there is absolutely no comparison between the Stasi of the GDR and the work of intelligence agencies in democratic states.”
