Prime Minister Andrej Babiš stated that the Czech Republic is facing hybrid warfare from Russia. His statement represents the most striking characterization to date of the security situation, which he says is linked to Russian activities directed against the Czech Republic.
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk followed up on Babiš's words, having already warned earlier of the Russian threat while citing intelligence service information. Warnings about a possible spread of the conflict to other European countries are also coming from security circles in several states. seznamzpravy.cz ↗
In response to the Russian threats, Czech authorities have stepped up security measures. Police have reinforced patrols at train stations, focusing on prevention and the protection of public spaces. The authorities did not specify in detail the circumstances that led to the increased security. idnes.cz ↗
Security expert Jan Paďourek described Babiš's statement as groundbreaking. According to him, it is important that the Czech prime minister has openly named the scope of the risks associated with hybrid activities. According to the description of the security situation, these may include actions against the stability of the state without a direct military attack occurring. seznamzpravy.cz ↗
According to security officials, the Czech Republic will therefore have to continue monitoring the development of Russian activities and adapt the protection of strategic sites and public institutions accordingly. Further steps will depend on the assessment of threats by Czech and allied security forces.
