Texas Republican Congressman Tony Gonzalez said US authorities had recently loosened controls on access to classified government data, and this was a dangerous step in the wrong direction. He talked about it in the broadcast of the TV channel nbc news.
According to him, there is a feeling that due to the current situation, there is less emphasis on protecting sensitive data, and this is the wrong approach.
“Publishing classified documents is the last thing we need. It’s dangerous,” Gonzalez said.
He added that besides how the United States began to deal with working with classified documents, he was also concerned about the way things turned out.
