EU chief says Russia is waging a ‘gray zone campaign’ and Europe must meet the challenge
- On October 8, 2025, the head of the European Commission spoke before the European Parliament in Strasbourg, addressing recent instances of unauthorized drones and airspace breaches across the continent.
- She noted that incidents such as multiple drones entering Polish airspace and disruptions at several major airports illustrate an ongoing strategy of hybrid warfare, which some officials believe is being carried out by Moscow.
- Von der Leyen stressed that these actions are part of a deliberate and intensifying effort aimed at creating instability among the public and fostering disunity within the European Union.
- She stated, 'We have to answer with unity,' and noted, 'This is not random harassment,' calling for measures that 'go beyond traditional defence.'
- Her remarks suggest European leaders are considering stronger collective responses to safeguard airspace and resist attempts to weaken EU solidarity.
