Russia is engaged in hybrid warfare against the West. It is not preparing for hybrid warfare. It is already engaged in it.
This reality of constant, pervasive, and widespread Russian aggression against the West was brought home to me by Daniel Silva’s brilliant new novel “Ransom.”
Mr. Silva captures the wide range of Russian aggressive, criminal, and at times violent behavior. This behavior spans finance, psychological warfare, suborning people into being Russian assets, the use of drones, and draining European will and energy.
While Mr. Silva was writing this novel, the day-to-day news more than validated his concern about the Russian use of what they call hybrid warfare.
The London Telegraph reports that Russia is building “secret drone bases in striking distance of NATO.” According to the paper, “Satellite imagery and leaked documents reveal a network of secret launch bases capable of sending Moscow’s newest long-range attack drones deep inside NATO…the Kremlin is reshaping the battlefield right under Europe’s nose.”
