Swedish authorities say they have detected a Chinese ship moving near two telecoms cables that failed within hours of each other on the Baltic Sea bed in recent days.
Prosecutors in Stockholm have launched a preliminary investigation into suspected sabotage, hours after Germany dubbed the cable failure part of a “hybrid operation”.
On Sunday morning at about 10am, Swedish authorities registered problems with a data cable under the Baltic Sea from the Öland island to Lithuania. At 4am on Monday, telecoms operators in Finland and Germany reported problems with another cable called C-Lion-1.
Both cables were damaged in the Swedish economic zone, prompting prosecutors in Stockholm to take the investigation lead.
You forget that the USA and China are also dependent on the EU.
Yes, of course. It’s why we have a relatively stable peace. But we can’t ignore that the EU is the weaker of the dependents, which is what I’m saying.
The EU has an economy the size of the US (if you include the UK), and bigger than China.
How do you think when you say europe is weaker? Weaker in some specific thing?
