Battle of Copenhagen 1807 replayed in 2022? + About DK-UK relationships in Nordstream case
Historical Context: The history offers various incidents of suspected UK´s sabotage targeting foreign assets military or civilian, undersea infrastructure, encompassing submarine cables and pipelines. This raises pivotal questions about the identity of the Nordstream perpetrators and their motives. Nord Stream attack may have been inspired by, and/or took into consideration historical UK actions against Danish or German assets, such as the Battle of Copenhagen in 1807 and the cutting of German undersea cables shortly before the start of World War I in 1914. But those were not localized incidents, the UK has reported habitual taste for spearheading its interests through internationally illegal or semi-legal covert actions.
The officials use the characterization of the Nord Stream incident as "sabotage," suggesting it might more accurately be described as "state terrorism," indicating a deliberate choice in terminology. This topic needs to be researched further.
Danish Response: Following the Nord Stream attack, Denmark sought urgent meetings with UK, NATO, and EU officials, with Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen traveling to London for a crucial meeting with Liz Truss. This meeting was contrasted with other leaders' virtual discussions, raising suspicions of undisclosed evidence or prior decisions regarding cover-ups.
Analysis of Body Language: Frederiksen's demeanor before and after her meeting has been analyzed for inconsistencies, indicating possible tension regarding the incident.Terminology Concerns: The consistent use of the term "sabotage" versus "state terrorism" is questioned in the context of the incident's framing in media and political narratives.
Rishi Sunak's 2017 report focusing on the vulnerabilities of undersea cables is presented as vital background information relevant to the context.
