The Russian spies had access to top-secret information

According to the article, the Russian spies had access to top-secret information on negotiations with international allies as well as private messages with Kwasi Kwarteng, a close friend of Truss who eventually held the position of finance minister.
While Liz Truss was running for the Conservative Party leadership and winning, the hack was uncovered.

According to the article, the messages are thought to have discussed Russia's campaign in Ukraine and included information concerning arm supplies.

Additionally, Liz Truss and Kwarteng both criticised former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson in the mails. According to the assessment, the messages that ended up in foreign hands raised the possibility of blackmail.
