By the later 1980s " Dr. Gabriele Leinfelder " had become extremely senior within her department at the BND . She had responsibility for reports sent to the Chancellor 's office , the Foreign Ministry and the Defence Ministry . By 1986 , as deputy head of the Soviet section , it was she who prepared the agency report on the possible participation of German firms in the construction of a major chemicals plant in Libya . Overall , Gast was able to pass copies of 49 detailed western intelligence reports to Wolf , covering topics that ranged from West Germany 's internal economic challenges to analyses of Soviet politics and the impact of the Soviet space programme . Something else on which she Gast was able to share the analysis of the western intelligence services with her eastern employers was the summit meeting between Presidents Reagan and Gorbachev . In East Berlin her HVA handlers trusted her completely to identify which documents should be copied : there was no attempt or need to guide her selections
