Este oceanul Irlandei veriga slabă a apărării europene? Cum amenință Rusia cablurile transatlantice • Newsweek România

Ireland's maritime security is increasingly vulnerable due to its lack of naval capabilities and reliance on external defense, particularly from the UK. The North Atlantic's underwater militarization poses a threat to critical transatlantic communication cables, with Russian vessels potentially sabotaging data routes. Despite controlling a vast maritime territory, Ireland lacks the technology to monitor underwater activities effectively, relying on NATO allies for surveillance. This situation highlights the paradox of Ireland's neutrality, as it depends on British military support to safeguard its airspace and maritime infrastructure.
