Summary

Finnish investigators found an anchor drag mark on the seabed near a damaged power cable, suggesting sabotage by a Russia-linked vessel.

The anchor drag trailed across the seabed for nearly 100 kilometers.

The discovery heightens concerns about Russia’s “shadow fleet” of fuel tankers, operating without Western-regulated insurance, and their potential involvement in sabotage.

The EU plans to take stronger measures to counter the risks posed by these vessels.

      To Russia and soon to the realizing world, the cold war never ended. It simply became digital instead of physical. Why fire guns when you can break a populace via social engineering? Why invade when you manchurian candidate your enemy into attacking 50% of its own citizens and attempting to undo 100 years of international treaties and allies?
