Well this looks very ugly, and will obviously cause a shit-storm in regards to the time that Russia had for field engineering.

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2023/08/05/ukraine-russia-vladimir-sergienko-afd-delay-tanks-support/ 

Vladimir Sergienko, a naturalised German citizen who was born in Ukraine, travelled to Moscow on at least two occasions to allegedly meet a handler and discuss plans to use legal tricks to delay German military support to Ukraine, Der Spiegel reported on Friday, citing leaked emails and text messages between the pair.

Mr Sergienko, 52, works as a translator for an AfD MP and has access to Germany's parliament, the Bundestag, and is said to have excellent connections inside the Moscow political elite.
...
Email and phone correspondence seen by the German magazine reportedly showed Mr Sergienko apparently working on a plan to help the AfD draft a legal complaint against Olaf Scholz's policy of supporting Kyiv with heavy weaponry.

"The government's job will be made more difficult. It's a win-win situation," Mr Sergienko wrote to his contact in one correspondence, saying that he needed financial assistance of up to €25,000 (£21,624) a month to help with legal fees.

Following up on one meeting, the contact in Moscow asked whether there has been "progress on the active measures" to which Mr Sergienko replied that "it's not easy but we are making progress".
...
No action was taken and he has said the money was for relatives living in Russia who are cut off from the global financial system.

Looks like it falls short of treason and espionage and is in the realm of lawfare.  I don't want arbitrariness in Western laws but our adversaries, or if you want to call them competitors, are exploiting loopholes wherever they can find them.
