Statement by Ambassador Barbara Woodward at the UN Security Council meeting on the Middle East.

On 26 October, a Hearing is organised on “Rising geopolitical tensions: the protection of subsea infrastructure, including communication cables and pipelines". As defence capabilities are connected digitally, undersea cables are vital for defence and security of EU Member States. The Hearing will therefore aim at assessing the current threat landscape and risks to subsea infrastructure, including different actors and their modus operandi to sabotage subsea infrastructure.
In the light of the recent reports of sabotage on the Finland/Estonia pipeline, the debate will also focus on possible ways to mitigate the risks, in particular via coordinated action with NATO to protect cross-border critical undersea infrastructure.

'In the conditions of the special military operation it is especially important to quickly replenish stocks of means of defeat. The solution of this task directly depends on the ability of enterprises to increase the production of artillery systems, multiple-launch rocket systems, as well as to minimise the terms of their delivery to the troops,' said Sergei Shoigu.

Russian Defence Minister General of the Army Sergei Shoigu takes part in the commissioning ceremony of the building of JSC Concern VKO 'Almaz-Antey's future missile plant in the Rudnevo industrial park of Technopolis Moscow special economic zone. New Almaz-Antey plant in Rudnevo is to produce air defence systems.
