The government said Wednesday that its ambassador to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, Guy de Muyser, resigned in the wake of U.S. intelligence allegations that he passed information to Moscow.

Foreign Minister Jacques Poos announced the resignation in a statement to Parliament.

A NATO spokesman in Brussels said he did not know how serious the security breaches were.

De Muyser, 64, had been Luxembourg’s ambassador to NATO and Belgium since March 10, 1986.
