Estonia’s recently published annual Foreign Intelligence Service report focuses on the aggressive activities of two main adversaries – Russia and China. Historically Russia has been a primary concern for Estonia’s clandestine services. It’s activities have not decreased since Estonia regained its independence, but have shifted in tradecraft and tactics.
Estonia is not alone as a target for Moscow’s active measures. Russia is the primary threat for the EU, the latter being besieged by cyber warfare, online espionage and the deployment of growing deepfake technology.
The report predicts that Russian special services will boost their development of ‘deepfake’ technology within cyber warfare. This technology involves the generation of synthetic media, mostly video, employing artificial intelligence and machine learning tools. This permits an individual’s facial expression and speech to be altered so that the fake appears to be real. This threat is of serious concern, because the technology will inevitably make messages so convincing that an audience will be unable to distinguish between true and false information.

"" Syria, for example, enjoyed exceptionally high fertility rates for a time, which fueled rapid population growth. A severe drought in the late 2000s, likely made worse by human-induced climate change, combined with groundwater shortages to cripple agricultural production. That crisis left large numbers of people – especially young men – unemployed, discontent and desperate. Many flooded into urban centres, overwhelming limited resources and services there. Pre-existing ethnic tensions increased, creating fertile grounds for violence and conflict. On top of that, poor governance – including neoliberal policies that eliminated water subsidies in the middle of the drought – tipped the country into civil war in 2011 and sent it careening toward collapse.
