¿Ha decidido Putin atacar a la UE?

Rusia atemoriza a buena parte del resto de Europa con actos que no cabe calificar de accidentes, ni tampoco como respuesta a supuestos ataques recibidos

¿Ha decidido Putin atacar a la UE?

News accounts suggest that Russia's actions since July 1997 indicate a hostile approach towards the European Union. According to then Prime Minister Viktor Chernomyrdin, Russia openly expressed its interest in joining the EU. However, the current situation has shown that Moscow's aggressive behavior puts the security of the entire continent at risk.

Ukraine has witnessed this firsthand with drones carrying explosives at Leipzig airport, cyber attacks on critical systems, fires and explosions at logistics and weapons factories, disinformation campaigns influencing elections, fighter jets violating the airspace of the 27 member states, and naval incursions in EU waters. These actions appear to be part of a hybrid strategy aimed at identifying vulnerabilities in neighboring countries and assessing their technical capacity and political will to respond to each provocation.
