The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has successfully recovered all classified copies of the cipher that were previously shared with the Speaker of the National Assembly and the Chairman of the Senate. This move comes after the cipher case was heard in courts in 2023, and the ministry sought to prevent further political use of the sensitive document.
According to sources, the classified copies of the cipher were sent back to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs from the Speaker and Chairman Senate offices, following a formal request from the ministry. The return of the copies was facilitated under strict security protocol, ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of the document.
The cipher, which contains sensitive information related to national security and foreign affairs, was shared with the Speaker and Chairman Senate for discussion in both houses. However, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs grew concerned about the potential political misuse of the document and decided to retrieve all classified copies.
Sources close to the matter revealed that the ministry took this step to prevent the cipher from being used as a political tool, which could compromise national security and foreign relations. By recovering the classified copies, the ministry aims to maintain the confidentiality and integrity of the document.
This development highlights the importance of maintaining confidentiality and security in sensitive matters related to national security and foreign affairs. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ proactive approach in retrieving the classified copies of the cipher demonstrates its commitment to upholding the highest standards of security and integrity.
