In an official document which I have seen, the head of a Belgian administration tells a Brussels government minister: “Do not worry, we will never get caught.”

They were talking about the illegal use of microwave frequencies in the Belgian capital.

There is no doubt in my mind that several individuals working in the Brussels Administration have illegally collaborated with the Intelligence Services of a foreign country to help them gather intelligence on very specific US targets.

Donald Trump has called Brussels a “shit-hole”. Surely, one could be a bit more diplomatic. Nevertheless, if POTUS learned that there was an attempt to assassinate him in Brussels, one could possibly forgive his language.
