Russians must be running very low on electronics if they have to resort to stealing random shit from the ocean.
They were looking for toilet bowls but couldn’t find any.
Russians are basically the Smokers from Waterworld.
Buoyis are the only enemy russian navy is capable of taking on with acceptable losses.
Truely an act worth of a world superpower!
But like… Why
Does anyone have a guess? I am genuinely curious
They have always engaged in that sort of petty bullying of their neighbours. It is in reality Russia being in a state of constant “cold” warfare against them, but they know that their neighbours won’t respond. A couple of days ago a Russian warship wouldn’t move out of the way of a Danish ferry inside Danish territorial waters (even though ferry lanes are clearly marked as such), causing the ferry to last minute swerve.
Russia consider this psychological warfare, creating chaos and confusion. The country is a tumor on mankind, spreading its own shittiness everywhere it can.
Bullying
The buoy emits location data, so this is a little more than just a claim.
Esp. Kaliningrad being practically closed to outsiders and afaik a giant military base. No chance it’s a more ordinary theft.
Russian dull men’s club
At least one naval battle that ended with a net plus for them… /s
Teehee
