On Sunday, Finland detected a leak in the Balticconnector pipeline that connects Finland's gas network to Estonia's. With officials suggesting that the leak was caused by sabotage, this raises concerns, similar to those of Nordstream 2 a year prior. In this video, we explore what happened, who the culprits are, and the risk for a potential wider interconnector war.

If I get a nickel for every gas pipeline which explodet in the baltics since 2020, I'd have 3 nickels, this isn't alot but it's weird it happened two times
Together, we can get to a dollar
correction you would have 2 nickles. nord stream and nord stream 2 were blown in 2022.
sorry 3 nickles.
Just to clarify: The Baltics and the Baltic Sea are different things.
Norway, Finland and Sweden should look into the option of an overland pipeline from Hammerfest LNG plant to Finland and Sweden. Overland pipelines and pipelines at shallow water very close to the cost of Finland and Sweden would be more difficult to damage and easier to repair.
Hahaha swedes are cowards overall. Good luck
Costs would be horrendous making it uneconomical
The Diversity in Sweden will attack anything , so the overland pipeline is a no go from the start .
The amount of gas Finland uses is so small that you can almost truck it, but yes up in the north it wouldn't hurt to have the distribution closer. Then to the real question, is natural gas really better than the old options. We can pretty exactly follow the emissions from the old options while NG is only in theory better, no company has yet come out with real figures about the leaks so worst case its equal to burning coal and in best case its not even renewable/carbon neutral.
My point is that Industry and consumers can be supplied by ship or trucks and instead spend the money on something that is proven to be a better option.
@@thomasreilly6362 Maybe. But probably worth it, if compared to the immense cost of monitoring (and defending) cables and pipelines on the seafloor in international waters, where the Kremlin is operating countless submarines of various sizes equipped with radio/radar signal jammers.
The pipeline isn't our only option, there's a literal lng terminal next to it
The pro-Ukrainian theory has been completely ruled out by technical experts. Stop mentioning it.
Its kinda funny how the bots are blaming America when Russia is literally right there
In this case its very likely that Russia is to blame for this. But just remember last year when nord stream was blown up. All the bots on the internet blamed Russia for it, saying they blown their own stream. How stupid was that?
No it was China XD

@@nnnik3595 no they'd claimed it as theirs then buy it
According to current knowledge, the pipeline wasn't blown up, but it was broken with "mechanical force". This has interpreted most likely to mean, that a ship has dragged an anchor over it. At about the same time, a communication cable between Estonia and Finland was also broken. We don't know yet, how, because the exact place hasn't been located, yet, but it seems it is on Estonian waters.
Nah, it was a shovel brandishing Russian conscript
Can u be sure it wasn't blown up
@@fox280-mb6jy personally no because the pictures haven't been published,, but all the reports in the Finnish media say, that it it looks like it was "rippen" from the side. Something that could be done with an anchor.
@@ivanschekoldin7315 over 50 metres under the sea? Right.
I don't believe it
Finland's natural gas use was 5% before the Ukrainian war, but it has halved. Gas has been replaced by other forms of energy, e.g electricity is now cheaper than before thanks to the new nuclear power plant and increased wind capacity
This one hits close to home as my extended family is in a gas heated home in Estonia. This also worries me as I plan on moving to Estonia to realize my heritage one day. I hope this region can stay stable.

This kind of stuff happens because Russia is angry, but as a whole the "Nordic countries" including the Baltics are very stable.
OK whatever
@@caven7056?
@@JustAGuyWhoLikesStuff.who made them angry?
Its mechanical damage (think anchors and such) not explosion. (Was confirmed in finnish media). Also finland uses an lng terminal, not the pipe for most of the imports
I wouldn't be surprised if some Russian submarine accidentally bumped into it because of incompetent crews.
@@JustAGuyWhoLikesStuff. I mean of crs you would, soft brains easier to brainwash. But we already have a precedent of US making a terrorist attack on gas pipeline.
Mechanical??
This video is not paying attention, that a data cable between Finland and Estonia, not sharing the same location, was damaged the same time. So, it was hardly an accident.
@@JustAGuyWhoLikesStuff. it was an russian commercial vessel that ukraine has shot during the war.
"who blew up this pipeline?"
No point in watching the video cause if they had an answer that would be the thumbnail.
2:40 It's not true that the Balticconnector is the only import channel. Finland is also renting (together with Estonia) an LNG terminal ship named Exemplar from an American company.
No i don't think so. It was a big fish collision
Baltic sea doesn't have big fish. No fish in baltic sea can cause that much of damage.
It was a yo mama collision
Who indeed? It's a mystery... wrapped in a riddle inside an enigma.
No worries, Latvians will share some gass with our Estonian friends! But we shoud seriously start thinking, how to ditch this source of energy in near future.

I WONDER WHO????
A short notice in the beginning - neither Finland nor Estonia are dependent on this pipeline. Neither the infrastructure telecommunications cables that were damaged at the same time. /You had a small incorrect figure in this article - Finland gets 100% of our gas from our band new LNG terminal and while our 'energy consumption' of gas is close to 5%, our house hold gas comsumption is is basically 0%.
What Russia did was a 'test' against NATO - an act of war. More evidence of sabotage was released yesterday.
Sorry toe make this so long - here in Finland people have absolutely no anxiety whatsoever. On the contrary - this or a similar attack on Finnish waters was predicted. Now it's up to NATO what to do.
Again in the end part of your article: Finland is a superpower of 'preparedness'. We have 60 core internet cables in various places - Russia cut one. We have a brand new LNG terminal with a treaty for Finland to import gas from the US 'till 2060. This was not something that would harm either country as such - but an act of war.
Final correction to your article - there was a brief fluctuation in the gas market which settled under the price before the attack in the Nordic network.
Finland is a 'super power' what comes to preparedness. The thing is - 'some-one' tore up the gas pipeline between Finland and Estonia AND at the same time cut the Internet connectivity cable between our countries. Exactly at the same time as Hamas made their attacks.
Our Government (Finnish) did not want to point fingers before the crime investigation is finished - but like our former prime minister said 'We can rule out Sweden doing this' - that is Nordic speak 'Russia did this'. The sheer audacity to do this to TWO NATO and EU countries!
The problem with Russia are the following in this particular case (the problems overall would take an essay):
a) Russia's biggest export is FEAR to western democracies. It's not oil or gas, Russia's biggest export even world over has always been fear. Finland is not afraid.
b) As a member of NATO Finland WILL see this to the end.
c) If Russia's purpose was to just cause 'a little harm' to check how Finland/NATO would react, WRONG move. These were terrorist attacks/war on Finnish waters (gas pipeline) and on Estonia waters (the Finnish information cable). Finland is not impotent like Germany to find out - and soon - who has done this - after which Finland WILL pull out the 'NATO card'!
e) We will not want nuclear annihilation but short of that - Russia made a wrong move. Us Finns are not afraid and we will see this to the end.
Edited to add: Finland has too much history and extremely awful history with Russia. I feel our country is getting close to an end of some sorts. I do not want war, let alone nuclear annihilation. But what would e.g. Great Britain do if us Nordics with the help of Norway would cut your gaspipelines, cut of your information cables, try to put fear to your citizens, even saying they will unleash any and all asylum seekers as a threat. I'm sorry, but I think Finland has had enough of this after 120+ years. (some might say 500 years).
How can NATO and EU just tolerate an aggressive dictatorship to just down-right attack an European country like Ukraine - or in this case attack Finnish and Estonia infrastructure. We in Finland are ready no matter what Germany says - we in NATO WILL have tolerated too much just to look at what a pitiful weak nation otherwise known as Russian does to our democratic countries.
At the end: I know some Finnish newspapers(even major ones) are not translated to English but one thing is 100% - Finland track via satellites every single ship in the Gulf of Finland. While exact names of the (Russian) vessels have not been declared, you can be 100% sure it was not Ukrainians or the US. There is satellite imagery, underwater imaging, underwater AI detection, every technology the humankind has. Before idiotic rumours or theories begin - Finland has the best technology. The results will more like be released this Friday (12/10/23) for the world.
My guess is that concrete proof is needed so that something like article 5 can be triggered in earnest.
Still, the fact that both cables were broken at different locations is almost definitely sabotage.
As a german I wholeheartedly agree with your take. For the longest time Germany had leftover stocks from the cold war and we were militarily fatigues by the end of it.
The Ukraine war serves as a wake up call that we need to protect ourselves.
@@Brown95P Correct on both account. Finland has to be 100% sure before making a declaration of war against Finland. That is what I meant that Finland has to be careful. No one wants a total escalation.
@@nnnik3595 I feel truly sorry if I offend you. Finland is always an allay to you in European Union. We made a mistake to trust you when Germany made treaties with Russia over EU with Nordic pipelines (again!).
You are absolutely correct - while this was a test of Finland/NATO it was at the same time a fear tactics NOT to support Ukraine. We have to support each and every European country - within EU/NATO or without. Without it Russia wins.
I expect the NATO response to Russian provocation against Finland and Estonia would be for Finland's and Estonia's NATO allies to begin stationing more of their soldiers on Finnish military bases, as well stationing nuclear capable bombers or cruise missiles if Russia keeps pushing with provocation to make it clear to Russia that Estonia and Finland have the capability to retialite against nuclear weapons threats without waiting for response from the nuclear armed NATO countries. The West should invest more in research and development of reliable anti-nuclear weapons systems in order to finally remove Russia's beloved nuclear threat card.

There's a country with great experience in blowing up pipelines, such as the North Stream. The same county denied that their rocket fell in Poland and accused Russia of it.
We still dont know who blew up nordstream, even though it was most likely Russia, seeing as they have ships and personell in the Baltic, meanwhile Ukraine has all hands on deck for the war, and wouldnt be tarnishing their own relations with germany for no reason
@@unfathomablyunfathomable The Discord leaks from months ago revealed the US and EU intelligence agencies knew about plans for six Ukrainian divers to blow up the Nord Stream pipeline and neither the EU, the USA or Ukraine have dismissed the information. Ukraine doesn't care about their relationship with Germany because Germany is one of the least significant suppliers and they also know that they can get away with it. Ukraine also denied the truck explosion on the Crimean bridge but later admitted to it as well. Ukraine also denied that it was their rocket, which hit Poland, but it was revealed that it was them. I didn't even mention their name in my comment, but you figured out I was talking about them, which means you know very well, at least on a subconscious level, they were capable of this, yet you deny it, after all the evidence and all of other occasions, when they behaved like this. At this point, after all they've done, I bet they are also responsible for the Khahovka dam explosion and I am sure that time will prove this.
ukraine has nothing to gain with this and a lot to lose (there was 0% of russian gas going through it). it wasn't them.
WRONG ANSWER?
"There's a country with great experience in blowing up pipelines, such as the North Stream."
I'm assuming you're talking about Ukraine. Ukraine did have a motive for destroying the Nord Stream pipelines but it doesn't have any motive for destroying the Balticconnector.
Damn! I didn't know I lived in Poland
I heard they found an anchor from a Chinese ship?
Finland has an LNG terminal and is fine in terms of supply for its needs. For Finland, this is significant in political terms first and foremost, then market efficiency. The energy issue is with Estonia, which is much more reliant on natural gas, and doesn’t have LNG import facilities on it’s soil.
Your information is false. Estonia one year average consuption of gas is 3.5TW. In Latvia Incukalns gas storage is full of 7.5TW. Most of is bought by Estonia gas companies who were planning to sell it to Finland this winter. Now they cant. Please check data before you start to spread misleading information.
And Estonia have LNG import facilitie on its soil. They started to build it last year.
@@Heinakuhiehm, what I said is accurate, Finns don’t need gas from Estonia for consumption by its industrial plant, and at best this sabotage is annoying. I hope Estonia is building facilities for an LNG terminal, but it doesn’t have one right now. Otherwise what you said, that’s good, wouldn’t want Energy prices spike again in Estonia.
@@MrSpritzmeisterthe construction of the Paldiski lng terminal finished a few weeks less than 1 year ago. It infact caused a minor politically crisis because it was implied by estonian government that the terminal ship ordered jointly (paid for by finland) would be stationed in the gulf of finland terminal that was finished first. but regardless of the fact that paldiski was supposedly finished first the ship was still anchored in inkoo instead. because the finnish need was so much highest and for estonia it was only a measure of redundancy and price control. Estonia or it's small industry does not NEED the balticconnector at all. the pipelines from the latvian storage facility and the lithuanian lng terminal more than cover it's demand. never mind that there is still an option to just dock a ship in paldiski as well
@@oinas91 good! So you have a terminal but it isn’t used, so it’s useless at this moment. Nevertheless, good that one exists. The point was about Estonian energy mix vs. Finnish one, and the supply to that mix, and how a restriction in supply, in this case that one pipeline, affects prices for consumers. In this Estonia is much more exposed than Finland is because gas is used much more widely, and consumers being significantly less well off.
EU needs to invest in redundancy.

Just another reason why Boskalis/Smit must build a land bridge between Helsinki / Tallinn (Reval). So no foreign submarines can ever do damage.
The Netherlands is used to building dikes, creating islands or even closing off the seas completely.
An 80km bridge?
@@injest1928 Tunnel
A submarine could definitely damage a bridge
That would cut off St. Petersburg Sea Port for the Russians. That definitely won't fly with them. It would also disrupt several of the other smaller sea ports in both those countries. Thus causing home grown resistance to the idea. A Tunnel like that between UK and France would be a better option than a land bridge.

Wait, why is no one talking about the the fact that if this was a deliberate damage to the pipe line and a bombing in Finish territory(?) by Russia, who are now a member of NATO, wouldn't that trigger the 'an attack on one member is an attack on all members' clause? Never mind if it could be provably connected directly to the Russian state, but Putin would have to be truly insane now to give this order for something so seemingly minor, it makes me think it more likely the act of Russian sympathisers.

Gas is clean...
@@skp8748 It still emits carbon dioxide when burned
