He explained that not only are data cables in the region repeatedly being damaged, but now a Russian oil tanker has also run aground. Brake views these incidents as part of a targeted escalation strategy by Russia aimed at Europe. He warns that Europe must not remain passive any longer and should not allow itself to be "pushed around." Instead, decisive action is needed to ensure the security of the region and push back against Russian influence.
