Twice in the past year, Chinese-flagged vessels have almost certainly severed subsea cables on the Baltic seafloor by dredging their anchors for long distances, European investigators believe. Quietly, sources close to the inquiries have suggested that the vessels may have acted at the direction of Russian intelligence.
Ok so this is probably just the start of a huge wave of cable incidents.
Based on the weak response they have gotten so far, there isn’t any reason for them to stop.
The Chinese ship Xin Xin Tian 2 was seen in the area, hmm🤔
We’re in Cold War 2, we should act like we’re in CW2.
Just for arguments sake, why is this not considered an act of war? Why is it not feasible to place navy in the area that is authorized to sink any foreign ships acting suspiciously? Chinussia will either have to admit they engage in covert ops against the west and NATO or have their assets destroyed without being able to complain about it.
I saw a Lemmy post a few hours ago covering two power lines between Estonia and Sweden, and now there’s news of one of them not functioning anymore, that’s some weird coincidence
