« We Are Stronger »: NATO Warns Russia on Hybrid Attacks

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, visiting Tallinn, states that Russia’s hybrid attacks will not divert the Alliance from its priorities. He views these attacks as a sign of weakness by Moscow, aimed at occupying media space and unsettling populations. Rutte emphasizes that NATO will not always respond publicly to such actions, which include cyberattacks, sabotage, and infrastructure disruptions. In July 2025, NATO condemned malicious cyber activities attributed to Russia’s military intelligence, the GRU.
