Summary
The undersea Estlink-2 power cable linking Finland and Estonia experienced an outage on Wednesday, prompting an investigation, Finnish Prime Minister Petteri Orpo announced.
Authorities stated the disruption will not affect electricity supplies in Finland or Estonia.
Concerns are heightened due to recent incidents involving undersea infrastructure in the Baltic, including severed data cables in November and the 2022 sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines.
The cause of the Estlink-2 outage remains unclear.
When will the world deal with Putin properly?
When his candidate elect causes a recession in the US, triggering a global recession, causing the energy market to retract, affecting his ability to pay his window cleaners, causing him to take a terrible fall out of one when attempting to clean them himself
What should they do?
Bomb the shit out of the russian military and enegy sector by flooding Ukraine with weapons.
What I think people over here actually will do, is - start patrolling the shorter, more critical cable and pipeline routes with sea drones - and if the drone operators spot a ship with a lowered anchor, summon a proper military vessel to do more complex procedures.
Like a missile.
One will surely want to keep the ship, to auction it off and cover repair costs.
Send a bill to the governing body of the country where it’s registered and add on a hefty service charge to cover labor/materials/cleanup.
Do tell us what “proper” handling of Putin would be.
Assassination.
That’d create a power vacuum, and we sure as hell don’t want to risk someone worse taking his place.
The assassinations will continue until morale improves.
Would be pretty damn hard to do that
The first rule of history is that it can always get worse.
Maybe it doesn’t. Or maybe somebody starts a nuclear war to avenge Putin.
