Wikileaks: Governments 'sought US wiretapping help': "Fresh US diplomatic cables released via Wikileaks suggest governments have pressed the US Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) to extend wiretapping services.
Publishing the secret cables, the New York Times said governments wanted information on political adversaries.
Panama and Paraguay are two of the nations cited.
Panama's government says President Ricardo Martinelli's request on wiretaps had been 'misinterpreted' by the US envoy.
In a cable from August 2009, President Martinelli is reported to have 'sent the ambassador a cryptic Blackberry message that said: 'I need help with tapping phones''."
