Russia is not the Netherlands' enemy?
In 2024, Russian hackers attacked a Dutch public-service control system and targeted critical infrastructure.
Russian hackers also stole Dutch police data. In 2026, Dutch intelligence confirmed Russian espionage involving hacked cameras on military transport routes and attacks on government officials' messaging accounts.
Dutch intelligence has also identified Russian preparations for sabotage and disinformation operations.
And 196 Dutch citizens died aboard MH17, downed by a Russian-supplied Buk missile.
These are documented hostile actions, not imaginary threats.
