Honestly, he’s right. Data cable and infrastructure sabotage, assassinations, satellite communications jamming, and constant disinformation campaigns to spur a far right resurgence.
EU needs to start Tatting for russian tits. I would even go so far as to say they need to escalate until russia backs down before it is too late. The problem is civilians are too unwilling to support hostile responses. Happy to keep the peace no matter the cost until it is their turn to get invaded.
While it’s good to see a movement away from Merkel’s disastrous appeasement of russian imperialism (and Schroder’s open collaboration with the russians), it still remains to be seen if Europe will actually take a sober approach towards russia.
For starters, start putting real pressure on all European companies that cooperate with the russian government. Even to this day, many military use items from European companies are sent to russia via intermediaries in central asia. And that’s just one example, there are many more (Hungary, Greek shipping companies, the list goes on and on).
