Estonia’s justice minister has called for international maritime laws to be updated to protect against damage to undersea infrastructure.

  • It comes after Finnish authorities on Thursday seized a ship carrying Russian oil in the Baltic Sea on suspicion it caused the outage of an undersea power cable connecting Finland and Estonia a day earlier.
  • “We are interested in pushing the international maritime community to change or to modernize the international maritime law”, Justice Minister Liisa Pakosta said in an interview.
  • "We will propose further measures, including sanctions, to target this fleet. In response to these incidents, we are strengthening efforts to protect undersea cables, including enhanced information exchange, new detection technologies, as well as in undersea repair capabilities, and international cooperation," the European Commission and EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Kaja Kallas said in a joint statement issued on Thursday.
