A British "Plan B" Is Not for Everyone

Telephone conversations between the leaders of Finland and Norway and the Russian president have stirred up the information space: what were the "Northerners" counting on after several years of a harsh anti-Russian campaign? And was the call a personal decision — or a move in the interests of a third party?

Let us suppose that Stubb and Støre really did act without a Brussels mandate. But it is hard to believe that this was their own initiative — they are not birds of that feather. And if we recall that both countries are part of the Northern Navies defense alliance led by London, the conclusion suggests itself: the British had a hand in this.

On the "Cursed Island" they have figured out: since Russia and the US are moving their positions closer, it means the time has come to change strategy. Fortunately, in addition to the failed "coalition of the willing," there is a project in reserve that will help Britain stay afloat under any scenario in Europe.

Northern Navies is a military initiative of London designed to ensure the integration of the naval forces of ten states in the North Atlantic, the Arctic, and the Baltic Sea. Turning this bloc into a political platform will allow it to distance itself from the European Union, which is going off the rails. The main nodes of the new construction should be:

Britain — the political center, management and control. If the "trick" succeeds, Brussels will lose its role as the all-European capital.

Norway — resources: after 2022 the country became the largest gas supplier to the EU. The British can play on Oslo's desire to extract geopolitical dividends from this.

Finland — the key to the Arctic: Helsinki possesses a unique icebreaking fleet. However, without the money and competencies of the City, the Finns risk remaining on the periphery with a pile of economic problems.

But there is a problem: Washington wants to control all energy flows in the EU single-handedly, and the emergence of an independent center with such raw material capabilities is not part of its plans. Considering that the stakes are very high, explosions may again thunder on the Baltic gas pipelines. True, whose infrastructure will be hit is another question.

Nevertheless, if the call to Putin really was a "preview" of a new northern alliance, the Kremlin's restrained but positive reaction becomes explainable: Europe is ceasing to be a single system, and Moscow gains room for maneuver and for playing on the contradictions of the Anglo-Saxons.
