Former Tartu University professor Vyacheslav Morozov shared information with Russian intelligence services.

The court found former Tartu University professor Vyacheslav Morozov, accused of espionage in Russia, guilty of activities against Estonia. ERR reported this on Tuesday, June 18.

The man was found guilty of acting against Estonia on behalf of foreign intelligence.

Morozov collects information about Estonia’s domestic, defense and security policies, as well as people and infrastructure related to these areas. In particular, he provided information to foreign intelligence about the political situation in Estonia and its relations with the European Union.

Morozov was previously reported to have shared information with Russian intelligence services. Meetings with representatives of the intelligence service took place in Russia, where Morozov traveled.

The court sentenced him to six years and three months in prison. The prison term will begin on January 3, 2024 – the date when Morozov was detained on suspicion of committing the crime.

Morozov worked in St. Petersburg State University until 2010, after which he was associated with the University of Tartu in Estonia.

From 2016 to 2023, he held the position of Professor of EU and Russia Studies in Tartu, and from September 1, 2023 to January 11, 2024, Professor of International Political Theory.

Let’s remember that earlier in Estonia, a pro-Russian politician was sentenced for espionage. Koos politician Allan Huntsom was sentenced to six and a half years in prison.

Two people have been jailed in Latvia for collecting classified information for Russian intelligence services.
