Russia’s hybrid war on NATO’s Eastern Flank quietly escalates

Since 2014, the Kremlin has steadily escalated its hybrid war on the West through subversion, sabotage and disinformation. The recent surge in attacks on NATO’s Eastern Flank, such as in Poland, Romania and the Baltic states, underscores the intensifying nature of these threats. These operations exploit legal and institutional gaps. The West must shift from passive deterrence to a more coordinated and assertive defence of its values and systems.
