Europe Is Not At Peace And Its Countries Are Targets Of Russia — Rutte

In the current geopolitical landscape, Europe finds itself far from peace, grappling with Russia’s ongoing full-scale war against Ukraine, according to NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, as reported by UATV English. Rutte cautioned that Europe’s path to stability is long and arduous, emphasizing Russia's military capabilities are not expected to wane anytime soon.

"Despite the heavy losses, Putin shows no inclination to end the war; in fact, he is intensifying it," Rutte stated, clarifying that European nations are specifically targeted by Russia. The NATO chief highlighted the increasing number of Russia's malicious hybrid attacks across Europe, which are escalating daily. Rutte argued that these attacks are a response to Russia's inability to meet its goals in Ukraine and an attempt to impose consequences on European countries.

This warning comes as concerns over Russian hybrid activity in Europe persist, encompassing sabotage and other operations linked to Russian intelligence services. Furthermore, Ukraine’s military intelligence has expressed alarm over Russia's plan to heighten activity across EU and NATO countries, part of their preparations for hybrid operations designed to undermine support for Ukraine and weaken the Alliance.
