Estonian military intelligence was allowed to collect information abroad
60
Information Agency Interfax announces a high-profile decision that was taken by representatives of the Estonian Ministry of National Defense. The decision of the Ministry of Defense is as follows: Estonian military intelligence rights will be significantly expanded. In particular, the extension of the rights of the Estonian military intelligence means the permission to “independently collect information outside the borders of the Estonian state”. In other words, Estonian military intelligence officers receive from the department the right to military activities abroad.
Estonian Defense Minister Hannes Hanso said:
In order to plan the defense of the state, we must have information about the targets of the likely enemy, and this implies certain intelligence activities. Military intelligence should have broad rights to carry out such activities.
In addition, Hanso said that Estonia is the eastern frontier of NATO, and therefore the capabilities of the Estonian military intelligence should be part of the overall security system of the alliance.
If we consider that the Estonian Ministry of Defense declared the Russian Federation as a potential adversary, does this mean that henceforth, on the territory of Russia, we can expect the rapid activity of Estonian intelligence officers? ..
