The President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, and the NATO Secretary General, Mark Rutte, stated on Wednesday that pressure on Russia will continue and even "increase". These statements came after a hybrid drone attack at an airport in the German city of Leipzig, which was attributed to Moscow.
Both leaders wanted to convey a message of unity and determination in the face of Russian actions. The threat of a stronger response comes in a context of growing tensions between the West and Russia.
The attack on Leipzig airport represents a new episode in the series of hybrid actions that Moscow has been developing against European countries. This situation reinforces the need for a firmer and more coordinated stance on the part of European institutions and NATO.
