US intelligence chief visits Moscow to caution Russia
The New York Times revealed that the Director of the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), John Ratcliffe, visited Moscow this week to warn Russia against launching an attack on NATO member countries, especially amid Washington's concerns that Russian President Vladimir Putin might test NATO's readiness to defend its members through a limited attack, potentially involving the Baltic states. The visit also discussed the risk of Iranian escalation, with warnings of additional sanctions if the Strait of Hormuz is not reopened. Ratcliffe did not meet with Putin personally and briefed his Russian counterpart on the outcomes of the discussions.
