European leaders warn of an expanding Russian threat that now affects all of Europe, including western cities. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said Europe is on the eastern flank and faces direct Russian threats, noting possible impacts even in Luxembourg and the Netherlands. Civilian flights experienced GPS jamming, with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's plane losing GPS over Plovdiv airport, forcing pilots to circle and switch to paper maps. NATO is working day and night to counter and prevent jamming and interference. Von der Leyen described Putin as a predator who must be deterred, and France told hospitals to prepare for major military engagement.
We are all on the eastern flank now, whether you live in London or Tallinn.
It is taken very seriously. I can assure you that we are working day and night to counter this, to prevent it, and to make sure that they will not do it again.
Putin has not changed, and he will not change. He is a predator. He can only be kept in check through strong deterrence.
