It’s Russia, China and Iran mostly. Don’t forget a Chinese ship has been seen and is suspected of damaging the data cables in the Baltic Sea just a few days ago: https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blo...l-in-the-baltic-sea-speaks-to-a-wider-threat/

ship had a russian captain and came from russia

a few days before russia "warned" that the west wanted to cut underwater cables. then one of their submarines had to be escorted out of irish waters

it's russia every single time. china, north korea and iran aren't too reliable either but the others, especially china won't physically threaten europe. they also explicitly warned russia that the usage of nuclear weapons is a red line russia shouldn't cross. china's economy badly needs the west - they are relying heavily on trades with both the us and eu/uk. russia though, the rabid dog of the globe

eu should take the sanctions seriously, otherwise putin will just laugh at europe and keep being an annoyance

Yeah, Russia, at least for the West, is responsible for more than 90% of the incidents without any doubt. I also ment Russian threat for my first post, but talking about hybrid warfare in a general sense, I wouldn’t ignore Iran and China. We tend to look to physical attacks but we shouldn’t ignore the cyber domain, im 100% sure that if you Google ‘Chinese cyberattack’ that you’ll find plenty examples within a minute.

Also don’t forget, China needs Western exports but we need their imports aswel. Production capacities in Europe are a joke, everything comes from China. Remember when simple car repairs became a problem during the pandemic due to China being in lockdown.

The scope of such attacks would probably be to weaken/undermine our position, not necessarily to provoke a war.

Btw how do you know the Chinese ship has a Russian captain?

You guys don’t have to worry about it though, since Trump has promised you will not have to vote again.

Such an eloquent reply. A true genius.

One can only hope he's driving his own cars. That might do the trick one day.

Didn't he admit to being that Adrian account who kept praising Elon telling him (himself) how much of a good dad he is. He might stop himself at the rate he is going.

He is dangerous. Owning a platform that can influnce great number of people and sway the votes makes that no politician would want to go against him. He seems to be bent on making changes in Europe next.
