Along with WINGAS, two other gas-trading companies are passing from joint, 50-50 Wintershall-Gazprom ownership into 100-percent ownership of Gazprom. Those are WIEE in Berlin and WIEH in Zug (Switzerland), trading mostly with natural gas of Russian provenance. The Berlin house buys and sells natural gas in Germany. The Swiss-based house acts as an intermediary for Gazprom in supplying natural gas to certain countries in Central and Southeastern Europe.

Furthermore, Gazprom now acquires 50 percent ownership in Wintershall’s Netherlands-based exploration and production company, Wintershall Noordzee, fully owned by Wintershall until now. This company owns/operates oil and gas exploration projects in the North Sea’s British, Dutch, and Danish sectors (Wintershall and Gazprom press releases, December 23, 24, 2013; naturalgaseurope, January 12, 2014)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stasi

Stasi officers reportedly had discussed re-branding East Germany as a democratic capitalist country to the West, but which in practice would have been taken over by Stasi officers. The plan specified 2,587 OibE officers (Offiziere im besonderen Einsatz, "officers on special assignment") who would have assumed power as detailed in the Top Secret Document 0008-6/86 of 17 March 1986. According to Ion Mihai Pacepa, the chief intelligence officer in communist Romania, other communist intelligence services had similar plans. On 12 March 1990, Der Spiegel reported that the Stasi was indeed attempting to implement 0008-6/86. Pacepa has noted that what happened in Russia and how KGB Colonel Vladimir Putin took over Russia resembles these plans.
