Estonian Foreign Ministry Chancellor Jonatan Vseviov has revealed that Russia's ultimate aim in Ukraine is political collapse and the seizure of its territory. According to ERR, UATV English has reported this. Vseviov emphasized that Russia is not content with limited territorial concessions in eastern Ukraine. He explained that conceding this territory would force Ukrainian forces to withdraw from their fortified positions, furthering Moscow's demand for immediate elections.
Vseviov stated that the overall objective is political collapse followed by the seizure of Ukraine. He pointed out that a similar tactic was employed by Moscow against Estonia in the mid-20th century. In 1939, Moscow demanded limited rights for Estonia to base its military, which soon led to occupation and annexation. Vseviov warned against falling for this tactic, emphasizing that territory is the means and Ukraine is the goal.
