Sweden’s government has successfully thwarted a pro-Russian cyberattack aimed at a thermal power plant, linked to Russian intelligence. Civil Defence Minister Carl-Oskar Bohlin confirmed there were no serious consequences, highlighting increased cyber threats against Swedish infrastructure since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

“Perhaps, if one is permitted to draw a lesson at such a dramatic moment, his excess of programmatic Europeanism, coupled with a lack of pragmatic Europeanism, has ultimately turned against him. If he had succeeded in realising at least some of the projects he announced, if he had really dared to share with his allies the military and nuclear supremacy he wields in Europe, France and Europe themselves would not be reduced to this pitiful state today.”
