Geopolitical Conflict
Germany warns of Russian hybrid attacks as prelude to broader conflict
German defence ministry assesses that Russia's hybrid attacks in Germany are a prelude to a larger, potential military conflict.
Germany's Ministry of Defense has stated that Russia's hybrid attacks, including cyber operations and influence actions, should be viewed as a deliberate tool in Moscow's security policy and may serve as preparations for a wider military conflict. The ministry warns that these measures could escalate to open armed attacks on NATO's eastern flank, after which Germany could face increased threats such as long‑range missiles and drones. The ministry also notes that Russia is actively testing European borders and could turn the conflict into a 'hot confrontation' at any time.
