The country’s prime minister said the incident, the latest in a series of disruptions to undersea infrastructure, underscored the danger of a so-called Russian shadow fleet.
At least Finland is fighting for the good of humanity.

The West must fucking find its balls and acknowledge that we are in a hybrid war against the blyats. It is high fucking time we fight back. Using every means short of direct military conflict.
Short of? Eastern Europe is being invaded and Europe is standing by…
Rbf, I think they’re waiting for the real* Europe to be invaded.
- subject to change.
I studier the west is fully aware of that, and is fighting it on multiple fonts
Why should we stop short?
Russia is actively in combat with an Eastern European nation and has been for 4 years. It’s arguable that the rest of Europe and the West engaging with Russia on a battlefield would actually save more lives in the end by shortening the conflict.
They can’t make war if you remove their means to make war.Because it’s far more effective to wage an asymmetric non-shooting war. We have far more resources than the blyats could muster. We could outcompete them 100-fold in every fucking dimension. we could gradually weaken them until their miserable state crumbles. All without the devastation of war.
You allow Russia to invade one country, you invite Russia to invade the next country.
You allow Russia to shoot down one passenger plane, you invite Russia to shoot down the next passenger plane.
You allow Russia to cut one undersea cable, you invite Russia to cut more undersea cables.
Just start ‘accidentally’ sinking the fucking ships that ‘accidentally’ cut the cables and that will get the message across.
That assumes Russia gives a shit about it’s people.
Tap for spoiler
Russia does not give a shit.
We need to go a lot further than this, but yes.
I’m just waiting for the moment when a country exposed to “accidental” cable cutting, or attacks using water jets from the Chinese coast guard or similar, just responds by shooting first and asking questions later.
Like: You cut our cables/blocked our atoll from getting resupply, etc… put a 50mm in their face and carry on. Let them do the responding.
“Oh no, they were conducting acts of war and were in our way, so we sank them. What are you gonna do about it? Maybe stop doing that?”
Do you think that they’re not trying to provoke a reaction?
“They were coming right at my boat! I feared for the lives of my crew.”
Sink the damned thing.
We need to stop pretending that nuclear armament is an excuse to trample other countries with this childish crap.
Cut their internet and declare their currency holdings forfeit. Ban all travel to Russia. Force all companies to divest their holdings in Russia. Eject them from the UN.
Force them to live alone and if China joins in, then start ramping up production and give 'em the same treatment.
Nice, and what do u do for work?
I make matrioshka dolls in a factory in the west. I endorse this strategy.
Keep maintaining a shortsighted extreme position on every topic and you’ll never be promoted to supervisor at the matrioshka doll factory, just like ur entire western matrioshka doll industry has fallen to decay after years of western hubris and self declared exceptionalism
Time to ban anchors.
