EU Faces Growing Russian Threat: President Warns of 'Coherent Campaign'
The European Union grapples with an escalating threat from Russia, as evidenced by a series of incidents including drone sightings and airspace violations. The President of the European Commission has cautioned that these actions form part of a 'coherent and escalating campaign' aimed at unsettling European citizens and dividing the Union. The EU is urged to 'urgently equip itself with a strategic capacity' to counter these threats.
Recent incidents include MiG fighters violating Estonian airspace and drones flown over critical sites in multiple European countries, including the United Kingdom. The EU and NATO have proposed a pan-European security plan to address these threats, which are characterized as 'hybrid warfare' and should be taken very seriously. Each incident must be investigated, and responsibility must be attributed to safeguard European territory. Confronting Russia's hybrid war necessitates a new mindset and exploring innovative approaches. The EU must choose between shrinking from Russian threats or confronting them with unity, deterrence, and resolve.
The EU must act swiftly and decisively to counter the growing threat from Russia. A coordinated response with NATO is vital to protect European territory and maintain unity among member states. The EU must equip itself with the necessary strategic capacity to meet these challenges head-on.
