“同样的网络攻击，同样的虚假信息，海底电缆受到威胁，航运受到威胁，代理人攻击。

“但我认为他们的社会——因为面临更长期的军事威胁以及实行的国民服役制度——建立起了更强的民族精神和国防意识。
“But I think their society – because of that longer military threat they’ve faced and the national service they do – they have built up a stronger national spirit and national defence attitude.
“这是我们可以学习的，特别是他们如何开展民防演习、如何建设基础设施，以及我们如何让整个社会为此做好准备。”
“It is something that we could learn, especially how they conduct civilian exercises, the way they’re building their infrastructure, and how we can get our whole society prepared for this.”

Nick Gould, who trained in civil defence during the Cold War, told The Telegraph during the summer that Britain was “lagging seriously behind” Europe in terms of civil defence.
他补充说，虽然英国已为恐怖主义等常规事件做好准备，但并未为“一连串持续发生、整个英国都面临威胁”的事件，或食品、燃料供应、进口或互联网连接中断的情况做好准备。
He added that, while Britain was ready for conventional incidents such as terrorism, it was not prepared for “a sustained series of incidents where the whole UK is at threat” or where food and fuel supplies or imports or internet connections are disrupted.
