European Parliament supports the setting up of an EU centre for democratic resilience. This centre should include existing cooperation systems and crisis management capacity, and be adaptable to evolving threats.
The MEPs name Russia the “primary threat for Europe’s democratic integrity,” adding that frequent hybrid attacks on critical infrastructure, such as cyberattacks, physical sabotage, arson, espionage and signal jamming, are also originating also from Belarus, China, Iran and North Korea.
The lawmakers call for expanded sanctions targeting enablers of Russian disinformation and non-EU entities, particularly Chinese ones, that help circumvent sanctions and facilitate Russian operations.

There are also measures and funding for civil society organization, particularly via AgoraEU (opens pdf).

Oh, are you guys finally ready to talk about why the EU is bad? Now that it has effected you personally?
Edit: Looks like y’all still aren’t ready for it.
What are you talking about??
The many times people in this community flipped shit when I said the EU was imperialistic and favourable to authoritarian politics. Now that there is an obvious example of how that looks, apparently many of you have known this the whole time. Just pointing out the humour in that, Euros are horribly uncritical of their way of life generally.
Are you having a stroke
Just another lost mind :/ Tragic
Yes, there it is. Have fun with the surveillance state.
Trolls used to be good and funny. Man i miss those times…
Yeah, you seem like the kind of person who could handle them. Have fun with the surveillance.
Many do but they are not the majority and people in general don’t write comments to be downvoted.
You’re saying you think it’s good to not criticize something morally wrong for fear of losing internet points?
It’s enough that it is not motivating so people don’t reply as often as they could.
Right, so I’m correct in saying that many of you have apparently known this whole time, and yet only talk about it when it effects you. I’m saying that people in this community are cowardly and uncritical. Fear of criticizing something due to the most minute consequences of people on the internet getting mad at you is not something I find relatable or acceptable when so much of the fascism we are currently dealing with has been facilitated through online culture.
what does “eu is bad” have to do with “eu says russia is bad”?
You should probably read the article that talks about what its done because of that notion.
That’s fair, I didn’t read the article.
The main problem lies with the politicians people voted for in each country’s elections (who are then reflected in the European Council and the Commission), not the EU as a concept or even as a set of institutions, or at least, not entirely so in the latter case.
“This is because of individuals and their moral impurity, never the system.” yup, that’s a Euro.
Read again until the very end. I didn’t say that. 🙄
A: it’s one sentence, I read it multiple times.
B: yes, that is what you said. Whether or not you understand the ideas you’re talking about is a different thing from what you said. Yes, it is refusing to acknowledge the systemic failures of a fundamentally imperialistic and capitalistic system when you attribute its typical behaviour to simply mistakes made by those who participate in its elections. Nobody who is going to genuinely challenge this system is going to be in those positions, let alone achieve the level of impact necessary to avoid policies like these (that passes with a minority vote anyway).
Read again Murican.
How’bout you read it six times?
