Summary
Europol reports that Russia and other state actors are using criminal networks to conduct sabotage, cyber-attacks, and migrant smuggling to destabilize the EU.
The agency’s 2025 threat assessment describes a “shadow alliance” where criminals act as proxies for state-backed hybrid threats. Recent attacks, including arson in Lithuania and Poland, have been linked to Russian intelligence.
Officials warn of ongoing security risks, including AI-driven cybercrime.
Europol says these tactics aim to weaken institutions through persistent disruptions rather than large-scale attacks.
Can someone just fucking kill Putin already? I’ve had enough of this asshole’s pot-stirring bullshit.

If he goes asymmetric, we go asymmetric. Let see how well his corrupt apparatus will identify a single Western operative. Not that hard to get a sniper rifle in Russia on the black market. Heck, the Russian black market is so ubiquitous I’m sure you could easily find a replacement president too.
How countries never seem to do shit when this stuff happens?
They don’t need any other criminal network - they have the best network in the White House now…
