Russophobia in Europe Following the invasion of Ukraine, discrimination, hostility and hate crimes targeting Russian communities living across Europe is on the rise. As the war continues, the risks posed to Russians - regardless of if they stay in Europe or return to their home country - are likely to increase. We take a closer look at the anti-Russian activity we've witnessed throughout Europe since the invasion, and how an increasingly polarised environment could escalate in the short term. The rise in Russophobia across Europe is just one of many wider threats that have manifested as a result of the war in Ukraine. In a recent report by our Content Marketing Executive, Philip Buckingham, we further explore the global impacts of the event and what they might mean for businesses and security professionals across every industry.

When you add phobia to what seems to be literally anything nowadays, you're putting violent hate crimes in the same category as someone who may simply not support an idea. Phobias require clinical support and a medical diagnosis, not public opinion. "A phobia is an uncontrollable, irrational, and lasting fear of a certain object, situation, or activity. This fear can be so overwhelming that a person may go to great lengths to avoid the source of this fear. One response can be a panic attack. This is a sudden, intense fear that lasts for several minutes. It happens when there is no real danger." - Johns Hopkins Medicine

Although I except Russians may be getting a difficult time, is it really a phobia? Or just venom directed at them for the actions of Putin's regime.
