Wall Street Journal: Șeful CIA a mers la Moscova pentru a-i transmite lui Putin să nu atace NATO / Putin ar viza ”o incursiune terestră la scară redusă”

The CIA director's recent visit to Moscow aimed to warn Russia against attacking NATO countries, following U.S. intelligence assessments. John Ratcliffe's trip was the first known public visit by a CIA chief to Russia since 2021. U.S. officials are concerned about potential Russian aggression, possibly targeting Baltic nations. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov confirmed discussions between Ratcliffe and Russian intelligence officials, but no meeting with Putin occurred. The White House provided limited details, while Trump described the visit as routine, emphasizing efforts to end the Russia-Ukraine war.
