Confruntare pe mare NATO-Rusia. Aliații au împiedicat planul lui Putin de a dezactiva cabluri submarine • Newsweek România

NATO allies disrupted a Russian naval exercise near Svalbard, aimed at testing technology to disable critical submarine cables. The operation involved Russian deep-sea submersibles and was monitored by the UK, Norway, and the US, preventing its completion. No cables were damaged, but the exercise simulated potential conflict scenarios with NATO. Norwegian Defense Minister Tore Sandvik emphasized that any attempts to target critical infrastructure would be detected and have consequences. Concerns over submarine sabotage have risen in Europe, with multiple incidents reported in recent years, prompting NATO to enhance surveillance of underwater infrastructure.
