The Hong Kong-registered vessel NewNew Polar Bear was in the vicinity of two different Baltic Sea pipelines when they were damaged earlier in October, and has now become the focus of the police investigation.
The Chinese government has cautioned Finland and Estonia about an ongoing investigation into damage to undersea cables in the Baltic Sea, which authorities have described as ‘sabotage’.
It comes after Finnish police revealed that a Hong Kong-registered ship called the NewNew Polar Bear was sailing in the vicinity of the Finland-Estonia gas and communications pipeline when it was badly damaged in October.
Attempts will be made to raise the large, heavy object found on the seabed close to the damaged pipe for technical examination.
Now, China has called for an “objective, fair and professional” investigation into the Baltic Connector pipeline damage.
The NewNew Polar Bear vessel was also in the same area when the damage is understood to have happened to the Swedish pipeline.
