Senior NATO Commander Warns Putin Is Becoming More Cavalier and Open to Risk as Ukraine War Drags On
The alliance says Russia has stepped up covert pressure, with incidents rising from 59 in March 2025 to more than 210, according to an AP map.
- On Tuesday, Air Chief Marshal Sir John Stringer warned that Russian President Vladimir Putin is becoming "increasingly cavalier, dangerous and risk accepting," seeking to provoke NATO into an "overreaction."
- European nations face a campaign of covert disruption, with incidents escalating from 59 in March 2025 to more than 210, including sabotage, arson, and cyberattacks in what officials call a "febrile environment."
- Estonian Prime Minister Kristen Michal likened Putin to a "rat in the corner," attempting to break Western support for Ukraine as his campaign struggles, costing more than half a million lives and causing fuel shortages in 80 of 83 Russian regions.
- While Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned last week that Russia might mask strikes as accidental, NATO leaders believe a conventional attack remains "improbable" given Moscow's forces are tied down in Ukraine.
- The high level of Russian malign activity is "here to stay" until Putin changes his military goals, Michal said, as French President Emmanuel Macron prepares plans to defend critical infrastructure against potential drone and cyberattacks.
