Denmark is engaged in diplomatic discussions with China following the mysterious damage to two undersea telecommunications cables in the Baltic Sea. The incident, which occurred last week, has raised suspicions of sabotage, with attention focusing on a Chinese cargo ship, the Yi Peng 3. The vessel, currently anchored in the Kattegat Strait between Sweden and Denmark, was tracked near the cables at the time they were severed.
The severed cables—one connecting Sweden to Lithuania and the other linking Finland to Germany—are critical components of the region's communication infrastructure. The incidents took place in Swedish waters, prompting Sweden and Finland to launch investigations with support from German authorities. The damage has further heightened tensions in the Baltic Sea, a region already strained by geopolitical unrest following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Danish officials have stated that, while the ship remains in international waters, limiting their ability to intervene directly, they are closely monitoring its movements. Meanwhile, China’s foreign ministry has denied any involvement, dismissing the accusations as baseless. European officials have raised concerns about potential "hybrid warfare" tactics, although no direct evidence currently links the Yi Peng 3 to the incident.
This development highlights growing concerns over the security of critical infrastructure in Europe, especially amid ongoing geopolitical conflicts. Diplomatic discussions between Denmark and China remain active as authorities across Europe work to determine the cause of the damage and identify those responsible.
