France explains new 'national security alert state' amid warnings of hybrid threats
RFI examines the month-old, never-activated mechanism as Macron warns of intensifying Russian hybrid threats.
According to RFI, French President Emmanuel Macron has warned of intensifying Russian hybrid threats, as France has held for the past month a newly created "national security alert state" mechanism.
RFI reports the mechanism, created this summer but never activated, is designed to allow the state to act in the face of a "serious and current threat" before resorting to emergency legal regimes.
RFI notes it remains unclear exactly where the threshold for activating the mechanism lies.
