During a meeting with NATO allies in Helsinki, Finnish President Alexander Stubb spoke exclusively to Euronews about the new normal of hybrid warfare deployed by Russia.
ADVERTISEMENTThe state of hybrid warfare with Russia has to be considered the new normal, Finnish President Alexander Stubb told Euronews in an exclusive interview featured on Radio Schuman today.
Stubb told Euronews’ Shona Murray that he « sleeps quite well at night » knowing Finland’s state of defence is well-prepared, but endorsed the need for more spending on defence, speaking after the Baltic Sea summit in Helsinki.
Yesterday, NATO secretary general Mark Rutte pledged to send drones, frigates and aircraft to the region to protect critical infrastructure from sabotage.
Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, several Baltic power cables, telecoms links and gas pipelines have suffered sabotage: acts interpreted by Western countries as an attempt by Russia to weaken Europe.
We also look today at what’s coming up on the agenda of the European Parliament as well as the most scenic rail journeys in Europe.
Today’s Radio Schuman is hosted and produced by Eleonora Vasques, audio editing by David Brodheim. Music by Alexandre Jas.
