NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said Thursday that members of the defense alliance would take stronger measures against Russian spies in response to Moscow’s hostile activities, including sabotage and cyberattacks.
“We have seen several cases of sabotage, arson attempts, cyber attacks and disinformation,” Stoltenberg told reporters ahead of a meeting of NATO defense ministers in Brussels on Thursday and Friday. “Russia is engaging in hostile activities against NATO allies,” he said.
“We will then also work on NATO response options, including raising awareness, exchanging information, strengthening the protection of critical infrastructure, including undersea infrastructure and cyber, and tighter restrictions on Russian intelligence personnel across the alliance. “Stoltenberg added.
