  1. We accidentally-on-purpose damaged your gas pipeline!

  2. Would this pipeline damage be beneficial to Russia in any way ?

    An anchor from Chinese Flagged ship is an interesting coincidence.

    Particularly , since the Chinese are notorious for making counterfeit commercial ships: , that look like fishing or cargo ships on the outside, but are actually intelligence gathering, lightly armed , spy ships, crewed by the Chinese navy .

  3. This is no accident. Its a perfect way for china and russia to admit it was an accident. China and russia both have fishing, cargo vessels that appear as if they are genuinely engaged in commerce. In reality, they are govt spy vessels. I really hope the west doesnt take their word for it, but i think they will.

  4. This is Russia and China demonstrating that they can cut underwater gas and data pipelines anytime they want. Doesn’t need to be a warship or submarine with commandos, just another ship going by.

  5. So does this mean anyone can destroy Russian or Chinese infrastructure and call it an accident?

  6. Whats the estimate damage in euro? Time to rise the insurance

  7. Shows the true heavyweight of Nelli Teataja. (80s Coming Back, it’s the 80s coming back…)

  8. The Chinese might admit to purposefully damaging it just so they wouldn’t have to admit that it was an accident.

  9. Didn’t China warn about investigating the pipeline incident just a few days ago :S

  10. There’s no way it was an accident but sadly western leaders will treat it as such.

  11. So of all the sea miles they happen to set anchor there? And will the West continue to “raise concern”?

  12. The Baltic is, in fact, now included in the new extension of China’s ‘nine dash line’.
