Germany: Prime Target for Russian Hybrid Warfare?
Germany’s leading role in supporting Ukraine makes it a prime target for Russia’s ongoing hybrid warfare, according to Major General Christian Freuding. While the cause of the recent DHL plane crash near Vilnius remains unclear, it highlights the Kremlin’s use of such tactics, including previous attacks targeting German logistics. Freuding emphasizes that Russia views established international norms as obsolete and that Germany must prepare for further hybrid offensives. Furthermore, Germany anticipates Russia’s potential for renewed aggression against a NATO member by 2029.
