Berlin – It was a clearly worded denial. “Irresponsible bloggers and online reporters” have “rumors” spread, according to which employees of the company Academi in the Ukraine were in use. This is false and nothing more than a “sensationalist attempt to create hysteria.” Thus spoke the U.S. military service, formerly passes under the name Blackwater infamous notoriety, on March 17 on its website .
