Summary

Sweden is investigating the Chinese vessel Yi Peng 3 after it was tracked near two severed Baltic Sea data cables connecting Sweden-Lithuania and Finland-Germany, incidents suspected to be sabotage.

The cables were damaged within 24 hours, and Germany called it a likely act of “hybrid warfare.”

The ship, owned by a Chinese company, follows a similar 2023 case involving a Chinese vessel damaging a Baltic gas pipeline.

Germany, Sweden, Finland, and Lithuania expressed concerns, citing increased hybrid threats linked to Russia, as investigations continue.

      The boat didn’t do it.

      And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.

      And if it was, that’s not a big deal.

      And if it is, that’s not China’s fault.

      And if it was, they didn’t mean it.

      And if they did, you deserved it.

    Should be easy to apprehend a ship on a sea with only a small exit to open waters.

      Well… Its “us” vs. “them” so it’s like… Okay dude.

      Tldr: the powers to be control people who would oppose this with fear of people that are different. Different color, different religion, different sexuality and different economic circumstances.
