>Reporting on its meeting with the European Hybrid Centre of Excellence, the assembly report noted that the centre said no map of undersea cables existed in the EU, while no single statutory body had responsibility to protect them.
Yeah, that seems like something you should probably get on top of.
So the Russians have broken a few cables with surface ships. They have already mapped where all the cables are with their ‘research’ ships. If they want to cut them they can use submarines. British and Irish surface ships cannot sit over every cable, and can’t do much about a submarine if they only suspect it’s responsible.
Doing something would take away from Ireland’s primary responsibility of complaining.
What are the Fisher men at these days? – Arm the fishermen! Few canoes with gatling guns and we’re away!
This proposal will die in heated debates about the “triple lock” and “Military Industrial Complex” until Russia cuts the cable and the complainers lose access to the Insragram hive mind and they suddenly realise “oh shit”.
Providing monitoring and security of our EEZ should not be controversial.
Working with our neighbors to get help with this should also not be controversial but watch it become a discussion about NATO, the first step to us joining a foreign war and other pointless arguments.
But “muh neutrality”
This would be a good initiative if it goes some way towards ensuring adequate surveillance of those cables.
They’re strategically critical infrastructure for not just Ireland, but the EU and US in general. The Irish DF is far too inadequately resourced to even begin to try and police them so things like this are necessary.
Who put these cables there in the first place,and why aren’t we charging rent for them passing through Irish waters
The government demands we pay for cables,that we didnt put there,or ask be put there,that noone knows where they are….this whole scaremongering is a farce,we should milk it for cash
we need our own ships, invest in our armed forces
