Any agreements coming out of the Witkoff-Kushner Moscow visit will stick to the same formula as all the other US-Russia agreements on Ukraine during Trump's 2nd term: Russia gets Ukraine's land, Trump and his circle get richer; Ukraine gets to do what they're told.

Sweden's public service TV company SVT has been under a DDOS-attack since yesterday, kicking their public facing systems (news, TV, etc) offline for parts of Sunday evening. The attack might still be ongoing but is fully remedied. SVT are among other things responsible for public announcements.

150-200 cables are damaged each year, 15% (7-43) by anchors. If we assume Baltic maritime activity is 5% of the global total (likely way too high) Baltic Sea ought to see 1.5 incidents per year. 2023 & 2024 averaged at 6 breaks annually, 4 x higher. Map, visual aid for eyeballing 5%.

Moscow has been stealthily funding much of its war costs with risky, off-budget financing overlooked by the West. That funding is now under pressure, offering new leverage to Ukraine and its allies.

There is a strong gale (43 knots) in Kattegatt and 3 Russian tugs are operating around a disabled Russian refrigeration ship (previously accused of spying). The tug pulling looks to have problem. The two others are in what I think is a readiness pattern. Submarine? Unknown.
