Lavrov warns EU arms buildup could spark conflict, Russia ready to act

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told the United Nations that the European Union’s buildup of arms could become a self-fulfilling prophecy and that Moscow would not hesitate to respond swiftly if Europe attacks. His warning followed a series of statements from European leaders about a rising Russian hybrid threat. French President Emmanuel Macron announced a plan to protect critical infrastructure after saying Russian hybrid attacks on Europe had intensified.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned parliament that intelligence suggested Russia might carry out drone or missile strikes against NATO members supporting Ukraine. Dutch defence intelligence and other NATO allies warned of a growing risk of limited Russian attacks, while Poland, Romania and Moldova reported several Russian drone incursions that NATO intercepted.
