“…Given the global effect of hybrid threats, coordinated international cooperation is necessary. The focus should, in particular, be on information exchange, cooperation and organising joint exercises with other countries to strengthen skills for a collective response to hybrid threats (Glänzel and Thijs 2017;Drelich-Skulska and Domiter 2020;Wadjdi, Tambayong, and Sianturi, 2023).…”

The presented study results from qualitative research conducted within the national project "Increasing Slovakia's resilience to hybrid threats by strengthening public administration capacities". Its content reflects the fulfilment of the main goalidentifying four pillars that need to be understood in connection with the concept of hybrid threats and a specific focus on the Police Force or members of the Police Force as well as experts from practice from the National Security Office. The authors also examine the definitions and conceptualisation of hybrid threats, which subsequently led them to identify the key features appropriate for the framework of the chosen research. When preparing this study, theoretical scholarly knowledge from the professional literature and the practical experience of experts from practice were processed. The authors also drew on facts they acquired during guided interviews conducted between May and July 2023 with members of the "first contact" point of the Police Force, general crime investigators, future Police Force members, students of the Police Force Academy in Bratislava and experts from practice, to gain insights and also to detect ambiguities in connection with the concept of hybrid threats.

“…In this context, we would argue that the government, probably all the countries of the world, the EU Member States certainly, did not avoid the new requirements on sufficient military capacity and capability disposal as well as the ability to react on the current and newly resurfacing security threats. For these reasons, the importance of defence planning has been increasing in the respective countries; what constitutes a specific process via which each state or coalition of states accomplishes its function of operation and coordination by creating, maintaining and applying inevitable defence capacities for ensuring state defence and meeting international commitments to defend freedom, independence, sovereignty, territorial integrity, the principles of democratic constitutional order and the life and property of citizens (Zůna, Pikner, 2013;Kavan et al, 2014;Kazanský, 2018;Drelich-Skulska, & Domiter, 2020).…”

Security and defense are truly a priority for the member states of the European Union: fact of hoax?

All the often-contradictory hoaxes concerning the European Union (EU) are so-called Euro-myths. They mostly have a negative tone and try to denigrate this institution. Their emergence is caused by the fact that individual states often need more information about what is happening in the EU, and the complex mechanism of the Union's functioning is difficult to understand. Therefore, when the next "EU wants to ban something" comes out, ordinary people tend to take it as a given without verifying the information, ensuring the defence of freedom, independence, sovereignty, territorial integrity, and population belongs to the main objective of each state. Thus, in response to the current political, security and economic situation, countries must earmark, within the framework of their national budgets, a proportion of the available resources to ensure their defence. The aim of this paper, based on current trends in the defence budgets of the EU member states, is to point out, that not only the global economic and financial crisis and the credit and debt crisis in the Euro-area have a significant negative impact on the amount of resources, which individual EU member states earmark to ensure their defence, but, in addition, all these aspects should be precisely understood, bearing in mind, the growing influence of disinformation spread, leveraged by the hoax rising influence.
