Summary/Abstract: The article " Hybrid threats: modern perception and tactics" addresses the issues of hybrid threats which directly affect European security, especially in the South-East European countries, including the Republic of Moldova and Romania. In these countries, hybrid threats affect both security and national interests and destabilize the political system in general. Carried out by external actors with geostrategic interests in the region, the tools of hybrid attacks are often national politicians with double standards or organizations, which undermine the democratic values of society. The author argues that the effects of globalization, pandemic, hyper connectivity and digitization have greatly amplified the effectiveness of hybrid threats, which is the reason for a strong necessity to encourage further studies of new forms and tactics of this phenomenon.
