Poland Accuses Russia of Unprecedented Election Interference
Deputy Prime Minister and Digital Affairs Minister Krzysztof Gawkowski alleges an unprecedented Russian attempt to interfere in Poland’s upcoming presidential election, citing a doubling of GRU activity compared to last year. These attacks target all election committees, spread disinformation, and aim to cripple Poland’s critical infrastructure. While acknowledging over 600,000 cyberattacks in 2024, Gawkowski assures the public that Poland possesses the resources to defend itself. However, NASK, a state research institute, reports that the intensity of disinformation campaigns is currently less than initially anticipated.
