Sweden and Lithuania and Finland and Germany after leaving the Russian port of Ust-Luga, on the Gulf of Finland. The ship continued its journey after investigators from Sweden and other countries were allowed to board.
Swedish authorities said they were satisfied with the inspection and did not say whether any evidence had been found. China has said it will continue to cooperate with regional authorities in the investigation.
Though European authorities have detained ships when sabotage is suspected, in the absence of concrete proof they have stopped short of directly blaming Moscow or Beijing.
Baltic Sea agreed at a summit discussing regional security threats — including Russian cable sabotage — to deploy frigates, patrol aircraft and naval drones in the Baltic Sea to help protect critical infrastructure.
NATO members said they reserved the right to take action against ships suspected of posing a security threat as part of a broader action, dubbed “Baltic Sentry”, in response to a string of incidents in which power cables, telecom links and gas pipelines have been damaged in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
The damage from the Jan. 3 incident did not disrupt communications in Taiwan, as the data was routed to other cables.
However, “if enough cables were cut you can potentially cause something as severe as an internet blackout,” said Ian Li Huiyuan, an associate research fellow at the Institute of Defense and Strategic Studies at the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies in Singapore. “Especially for Taiwan’s case, since it’s an island and there’s no overland alternatives.”
China’s Taiwan Affairs Office said last week that undersea cables were damaged by “common maritime accidents” and that Taiwan was making accusations “out of thin air” and intentionally hyping up the “so-called gray zone threat,” according to Reuters.
Taiwan’s Mainland Affairs Council, which makes China policy, responded that the investigation would proceed based on the evidence.
It said Chinese “flag-of-convenience” ships “have a bad reputation in the international community,” pointing to similar cases in Baltic states that are suspected to involve Chinese vessels.
The race to protect cables
It can be difficult to determine whether a cable was damaged by accident or deliberately, but heightened geopolitical tensions have raised suspicions that damage to some critical infrastructure may be sabotage.
