Finnish Commandos Seize Russia-Linked Ship After Undersea Cable Cut
Alleged to be part of ‘shadow fleet’ transferring Russian oil…
EU officials have characterized the incident as part of Russia’s hybrid warfare against NATO, with a European Commission statement describing the cable severing as “the latest in a series of suspected attacks on critical infrastructure.”
Fascinating — the EU story is Finland protecting it’s cables but the internet is alive with “Finland is trying to get Russia to attack it so article 5 can be initiated” before the inauguration. I guess the theory is that hijacking an oil tanker will force Russia’s hand…….could be an interesting 24 days!!
