Tap title to read story
Facing a potential escalation of conflict, European nations are urging citizens to prepare for war. Governments are issuing survival guides, recommending stockpiling essential supplies for 72 hours, and promoting psychological resilience. While some countries like Finland, with its history of conflict with Russia, are better prepared, others, especially in Western Europe, face the challenge of shifting public mentality towards wartime readiness. Experts stress the need for preparedness without causing panic, acknowledging the varying levels of threat perception across Europe. The effectiveness of such civilian protection plans, however, remains uncertain, drawing comparisons to past, sometimes ridiculed, initiatives.
