warfare

Renaissance warfare rarely had battles that delivered clear victories, so a system for negotiation among league members made ending conflicts without destructive, protracted fighting possible.

"Drones are already redefining warfare. Having drone defences is no longer optional for anyone," Kallas said, referring to Russia's ongoing war in Ukraine and fears that Moscow may attack the EU.

He cautioned that engaging Russia in hybrid warfare could escalate the conflict.

It corrupts the legal process, corrodes public faith in civic institutions, and invites further leaps up the partisan warfare escalator.

This includes preventing the re-establishment of terrorist infrastructure, ensuring that humanitarian aid isn’t weaponized, and supporting local governance that puts civilian welfare ahead of ideological warfare.
