Romania officially condemned the "hostile cyber activities" carried out by groups controlled by Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB), saying the country was among the targets of the operations. The statement came after the European Union and NATO denounced Russia's cyber ecosystem. In a Facebook post on Monday, July 13, president Nicușor Dan said Romania "firmly condemns the hostile cyber activities carried out by groups controlled by the Russian Federation's Federal Security Service, which have targeted European Union member states, NATO allies and their partners, including our country.” “Together with the European Union and NATO, we are sending a clear message: such attacks, targeting public institutions, critical infrastructure and sensitive information, are unacceptable," the president said. He added that the attacks are "part of a broader hybrid campaign aimed at undermining the stability of our democracies, fueling divisions within our societies and among allies, and testing the cohesion of the European Union and NATO.” Dan said Romania would continue to work with its allies and partners to strengthen cybersecurity and "defend the values, security and unity of the Euro-Atlantic community.” In a separate statement , the Foreign Ministry said Romania joined EU member states and NATO allies in condemning hostile cyber activities conducted by groups controlled by the FSB's Center 16, including APT TURLA.
