It is considered one of the most sounding case of spying, post-Cold War (Aldrich Ames was another case, but before the NATO Eastern expansion) : an Estonian educated in Moscow, chief over the NATO secrets offered information about the Alliance - or at least some information - to Russia. It is not yet very clear the way the Estonian worked and how many people were included in his net, as long as according to Der Spiegel he was also a client of the German external intelligence - BND.
According to the law, he could go in prison for a period between 3 and 15 years. The damages aren't yet evaluated, but it could take much longer to redesign the intelligence net for getting a higher security for deterring such attempts.
The list of the lessons learned is still waiting, because by now everything is quite unclear.
