What is the BND's assessment of the COVID-19 pandemic's origin, and what are the immediate implications of this assessment?

The German Federal Intelligence Service (BND) assessed an 80-95% probability that the COVID-19 pandemic originated from a laboratory incident in Wuhan, China. This assessment, based on intelligence operation "Saaremaa," included scientific data from Chinese research institutions, indicating risky experiments and safety violations. The German government, however, chose not to publicize these findings.
