EA on International Media: Assessing the Ukraine-Russia Talks
In a 45-minute chat, I joined The Dark State’s John Mooney to analyze Russia’s threats to Ireland and Europe amid Moscow’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
We move beyond labels — “hybrid warfare”, “grayzone warfare”, “political warfare” — to consider sabotage, cyber-attacks, Russia’s “shadow fleet”, drone incursions, and disinformation.
We evaluate Ireland’s response: while intelligence gathering and cooperation has improved, far more needs to be done with capabilities and preparedness.
