Foreign minister says China denied request for prosecutor to investigate onboard Yi Peng 3, which sailed over cables
Sweden’s foreign minister said on Monday that China had denied a request for prosecutors to conduct an investigation on a Chinese ship linked to two severed Baltic Sea cables.
Sections of two telecom cables were cut on 17 and 18 November in Swedish territorial waters of the Baltic. Suspicions have been directed at a Chinese ship, the Yi Peng 3, which according to ship tracking sites sailed over the cables around the time they were cut.
