None
The United States may have bugged Angela Merkel's phone for more than 10 years, according to a news report on Saturday that also said President Barack Obama told the German leader he would have stopped it happening had he known about it.
Germany's outrage over reports of bugging of Merkel's phone by the US National Security Agency (NSA) prompted it to summon the US ambassador this week for the first time in living memory, an unprecedented post-war diplomatic rift. (Reuters)
