Researcher: Russia 'Very Likely' Planning Attack on NATO Country

Europe must be honest about how dangerous Russia has become, according to researcher Elena Davlikanova. She warns that Moscow is already waging a full-scale hybrid war against the West. "It is very likely that Russia is planning an attack on a NATO country," Davlikanova said. Her comments come amid growing tensions between the alliance and the Kremlin. She argues that European leaders have not fully acknowledged the threat. A hybrid war, she explains, combines conventional military force with cyberattacks, disinformation, and political pressure. Russia, she says, is using all these tools at once. Davlikanova’s warning is direct. She urges European governments to prepare for a possible direct confrontation with Russia, rather than assuming dialogue alone can prevent it.
