Tightening penalties for espionage needed and deterrent?

Tightening of penalties for espionage is needed and will be a deterrent,” said Mariusz Kamiński, the head of the Ministry of interior Affairs, after the votes in the Sejm on the amendment to the Criminal Code, which introduces the tightening of penalties. “Espionage is simply a real threat” and “we are in a hard situation” due to the activity of Russian and Belarusian peculiar services.
