Today, 13 July Ukraine joins the North Atlantic Council's Statement condemning Russia's malicious cyber activities.

Russia's criminal war is fought not only on the battlefield in Ukraine. It also targets the critical infrastructure of Allies through malicious cyber operations, undermining security and stability across the Euro-Atlantic area. Such actions are a clear violation of international law, norms, and the principles of responsible state behaviour in cyberspace.

These threats require a firm and resolute response. We are grateful to our Allies for strengthening Ukraine's resilience and collective defence. At the same time, Ukraine stands ready to share its extensive experience in countering cyber threats, making our common security stronger.

We particularly welcome the coordinated three-pronged sanctions response to Russia’s malicious activities in cyberspace, namely the simultaneous imposition of stringent restrictive measures by the United Kingdom and the European Union, as well as the adoption by the North Atlantic Council of a statement condemning Russia’s criminal activities in cyberspace.
