‘US weighs ending spying on allied heads of state’

“WASHINGTON (AP) — Faced with a flood of revelations about U.S. spying practices, the White House is considering ending its eavesdropping on friendly foreign leaders, a senior administration official said.

“A final decision has not been made and the move is still under review, the official said.”

Sen. Diane Feinstein, who chairs the Senate Intelligence Committee, said “the White House” told her "collection on our allies will not continue." The “senior administration official” said Feinstein’s
statement “was not accurate.”
