AIVD annual report 2024

The world is more openly in conflict. Espionage, cyberattacks and economic leads are weapons through which countries demarcate their spheres of influence and promote their interests - if need be at another's expense. 

The balance of power is shifting and the question is what the world order will come to look like. For the Netherlands, which owes much of its peace and prosperity to international trade and a world order based on rules, this entails considerable risks. This can be seen in the many threats with which the Netherlands is faced. This is stated by the AIVD in its Annual Report of 2024.
