Russian hybrid warfare across Europe is finally meeting broader European awareness, according to statements from Budanov reported by Euronews. That initial assessment was accompanied by reporting from Euronews that NATO's deterrence has been weakened by a lack of response to Russian attacks.

Broader evaluations from The Dispatch and The Atlantic subsequently underscored that Russia's strategy and threats to Europe extend well beyond Ukraine. Nikkei Asia added that the impact of Moscow's European hybrid campaigns extends into Asia.

However, an evident tension exists between Budanov's observation of Europe waking up and the reported reality of weakened deterrence due to inaction. As it stands, European defenses face documented security threats spanning continents without a decisive collective countermeasure.
