Top NATO commander urges states to condemn Russian acts of sabotage
- On Monday, NATO Supreme Allied Commander Europe Alexus Grynkewich told EU lawmakers that European nations must publicly attribute Russian hybrid attacks to Moscow to increase costs on state sponsors.
- Acts of sabotage, cyberattacks, and drone sightings attributed to Russia have multiplied across Europe in recent months, including a drone attack in Leipzig and a strike on a train in Ukraine.
- NATO initiatives like the Eastern Sentry mission, which includes assets from Denmark, France, Britain, and Germany, have already strengthened coordination mechanisms for detecting and responding to these threats.
- Despite Russian attempts to fracture support, Grynkewich said the strategy is failing, citing Denmark's decision to fast-track new aid for Ukraine after a recent naval incident.
- Public attribution of attacks forces state sponsors to realize their networks are ineffective, Grynkewich said, potentially deterring future aggressive behavior from Moscow.
