As of March 2025, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia have significantly ramped up their preparations to counter Russian hybrid attacks that encompass disinformation, cyberattacks, and political subversion. These measures include the establishment of joint government platforms and close cooperation with NATO and EU partners focused on crisis response and intelligence exchange. The Baltic states also marked a major achievement by completing the synchronization of their electricity grids with the EU, thereby ending decades of dependence on Russian energy infrastructure. This energy independence is seen as a critical defense against potential resource weaponization by Russia. Baltic leadership and European Commission officials, including Ursula von der Leyen, have publicly emphasized the importance of this milestone. Despite ongoing challenges from Russian hostile activities, the Baltic countries continue to adapt their security architecture with innovative mechanisms to respond to hybrid threats encompassing societal, informational, and infrastructure domains.
