EU Council president António Costa described Russia’s recent hybrid attacks on European countries as “unacceptable,” urging Moscow to end what he called a “dangerous escalation”.

“Russia’s attacks on Ukraine also threaten the safety of civilians beyond Ukraine’s borders. It is unacceptable that, over the past 12 months, Russia has repeatedly threatened the security of the member states of the European Union,” he said in his speech on Thursday (24 September) during the UN assembly meeting in New York.

“The international community must mobilise all the levers at its disposal with regard to Russia to bring this war to an end and create the conditions for negotiations towards a comprehensive, just and lasting peace,” he said.
