Summary
China expressed willingness to cooperate with Sweden’s investigation into the severing of two Baltic Sea data cables on November 17-18, near where a Chinese-flagged vessel, Yi Peng 3, was sighted.
Sweden has formally requested China’s collaboration and asked the ship to move to Swedish waters for inspection.
The cables, linking Finland-Germany and Sweden-Lithuania, have been repaired. Authorities from Sweden, Finland, Lithuania, and Germany are investigating, with Germany suspecting sabotage.
Russia dismissed accusations of involvement as “absurd.” China stated it is in active communication with Sweden.
Or just by a Russian captain on a Chinese ship. This is an earlier article later ones omit this. A few different sources say the captain is Russian, but none of the ones in the news today mentioned it. The only information given is that the ship itself is Chinese.
I noticed that too when it first hit. Hmm. I wonder why the tone changed
Indeed, quite interesting. I read the OP article and remembered that initially there was more information, it made me think something had changed behind the scenes.
Thank you for providing that link
