How A KGB Spy Infiltrated NATO High Command | The Spy Inside | Timeline

Video Description

On September 19th 2008 high-rank security officer Herman Simm was arrested for delivering thousands of top secret documents to Russia. His job was to protect secrets, but instead, he ended up selling them to the Kremlin. This is an astonishing account of how a former Soviet militia officer rose to become among the few to safeguard the most intimate secrets in the Western World's military alliance and after becoming a decorated member of the power elite ended up as a deep mole working for the other side for over 13 years - causing the biggest clash between Western and Russian intelligence services after the Cold War. This is the inside story of Russia's highest-ranking spy in NATO. Never before told by first-hand witnesses. It's like Netflix for history...
