Sweden has opened a preliminary investigation into suspected aggravated “sabotage” and ordered the detention of a vessel in the Baltic Sea suspected of damaging an underwater fiber optic cable connecting Latvia and the Swedish island of Gotland earlier that day.
@comador @SlopppyEngineer what Russia does respond to is shutting down their oligarchs’ bank accounts the world over. Confiscate their yachts and send their wives and kids home. They can’t stand it. Drives them nuts. The wives can’t shop and the kids whine and complain, while the mistresses want attention but they can’t pay for anything. Hey, learn to play the game the Russian way. Diplomacy just does not work with them. Never has. But turning off the money? Every time.
