BIG | 🇫🇷🇷🇺‼️‼️ France is already carrying out undisclosed military responses to Russian hybrid attacks, according to a French military source cited by Le Monde, signaling that Paris’s confrontation with Moscow extends beyond the measures publicly acknowledged by the government.
Asked whether France could respond militarily in the conventional domain to Russian hybrid operations without publicly announcing those actions, the military source gave a remarkably direct answer: “That is already happening.” Le Monde reports that Paris has deliberately remained cautious about publicly attributing incidents and revealing its countermeasures, even as French officials say Russian hybrid activity across Europe is intensifying.
The disclosure points to an important shift in the confrontation between Russia and Europe. France is not only strengthening defenses against sabotage, cyberattacks and other hybrid threats, but is also prepared to respond through measures that remain outside public view. Macron has separately warned that such Russian actions will not go unanswered, while stopping short of detailing what France’s response entails.
