The President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, does not wish to interrupt the war in Ukraine and believes he can “be smarter” than the United States during negotiations with Washington on how to end the conflict, said Kaupo Rosin, head of Estonia’s foreign intelligence service, to the Associated Press.
According to him, Moscow is buying time in talks with the Americans and “there is absolutely no discussion about how to cooperate with the U.S. in a meaningful way.”
Rosin also stated that the conclusions were based on intelligence that his country gathered from “Russian internal discussions.” He did not elaborate on how the information was obtained. The Estonian report states that it is unlikely that Russia will attack NATO this year or next, but that Russia remains dangerous as it seeks to strengthen its armed forces.

“In his mind, Putin still thinks he can actually win militarily in Ukraine at some point,” he added.
A White House official responded to the Estonian intelligence chief’s comments and said that the president’s negotiators have “made tremendous progress” in the negotiations to end the war in Ukraine. Source: Associated Press.
