"The damage to the underwater infrastructure has been taken seriously, and its causes have been investigated since Sunday. The state leadership has been closely informed about the situation.
It is likely that the damage to both the gas pipeline and the communication cable is the result of external activity. The cause of the damage is not yet clear; the investigation continues in cooperation between Finland and Estonia.
We are also constantly in contact with our allies and partners. I spoke with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg today. NATO is ready to assist in the investigations.
Finland is prepared, and our readiness is good. These events have no effect on our supply security."
