Estonia jails university professor from Russia for spying for Moscow
Meanwhile, in a separate incident, a university professor was jailed Tuesday in Estonia after being found guilty of spying for Russia.
Viacheslav Morozov, a Russian citizen, taught at the Baltic country's most prestigious university and was sentenced to six years and three months in prison for collecting information about Estonia's defense and security policy and the people and infrastructure related to it, Harju County Court said.
The Baltic nation, which borders Russia, has recently seen a rise in sabotage, electronic warfare and spying, all blamed on Moscow. Morozov was arrested in January and accused of being involved in intelligence activities which undermined Estonia's security.
The former professor at the University of Tartu held meetings in his home country with his Russian handlers "with some regularity," Margo Palloson, director of Estonia's Internal Security Services said when Morozov was arrested.
According to the indictment, Morozov was also found guilty of providing Russia with information on Estonia's political situation and relations with allies including European Union and NATO members.
Estonia has a large Russian-speaking population and court documents said Morozov also provided Moscow with information on the situation involving integration in the country.
