LONDON (The Thursday Times) — Bartania ke ek wazir-e-difa ne kaha hai ke rawan saal ke pehle nau mah mein Bartania ke gird Russi bahri sargarmi 41 feesad barh gayi, jabke London ne shimali Bahr-e-Aoqiyanoos mein zer-e-samandar cables ke tahaffuz aur abdozon ki talash ke liye zer-e-aab drones aur sensors par 9 crore pound kharch karne ka elaan kiya hai.
Wazir barae difai tayyari Luke Pollard ne is izafe ko “bohat bara izafa” qarar diya. Woh is hafte Oslo mein tayyara bardar jahaz HMS Prince of Wales par munaqqida Royal Navy ki International Sea Power Conference se khitab kar rahe thay.
Unhon ne kaha ke Yantar jaise Russi jasoos jahaz is saal Bartanvi paniyon ke qareeb se guzre taake “hamare aham qaumi dhanche ki behtar tasveer” hasil kar saken, jis mein “hamari zer-e-samandar cables ki naqsha sazi” bhi shamil hai. Moscow maazi mein aise daawon ki tardeed karta raha hai aur Bartania par “Russia mukhalif khauf phailane” ka ilzam lagata hai.
Bahr-e-Aoqiyanoos ke neeche jaal
Wazarat-e-difa ke mutabiq Atlantic Net naami yeh naya nizam Hampshire ki company Ocean Infinity Solutions ke sath ek framework ke tehat tayyar hoga. Yeh sensors aur baghair amle ke jahazon ko ek nigrani service mein jore ga, jis se abdoz shikan jangi jahazon aur Astute-class abdozon ko, Greenland-Iceland-UK gap samet, khatrat ki pehle ittila mil sakegi.
Pollard ne kaha, “Shimali Bahr-e-Aoqiyanoos ki gehraiyon mein khatrat badal rahe hain, aur hum bhi un ke sath badal rahe hain.” Bartania Netherlands aur Nordic o Baltic mumalik ke sath 10 mulki Northern Navies Initiative ki qiyadat bhi kar raha hai, jis ke tehat Bartanvi samandari drone ittehadi jangi jahazon ke sath kaam karenge.
Ireland ke ghair mehfooz pani
Yeh tashweesh parosi mulk mein sab se zyada hai. Irish hukoomat ke mutabiq transatlantic taqriban 75 feesad zer-e-samandar cables Irish paniyon se ya un ke qareeb se guzarti hain, aur yeh mulk Americi technology companies ke bare data centres ka markaz hai.
Fauji taur par ghair janibdar Ireland, jo NATO ka rukn nahin aur jis ke paas koi abdoz nahin, ne haal hi mein apni bahriya ko mashkook jahazon par sawar ho kar un ki talashi ke ikhtiyarat diye hain. Wazir-e-difa Helen McEntee ne “Russi shadow fleet se munsalik jahazon” ko Irish paniyon mein tarjeehi khatra qarar diya hai. November 2024 mein Irish bahriya ne Yantar ko Ireland ke khusoosi iqtisadi zone se bahar nikala tha, jab use Bahira-e-Irish mein zer-e-samandar dhanche ke qareeb dekha gaya tha.
Washington mein Ireland ke sabiq safeer Daniel Mulhall ne kaha ke koi mulk akela cables ki hifazat ki zamanat nahin de sakta, taham ijtimai koshish se unhein “un badkhwah anasir se jo un mein mudakhalat karna chahen” bachane ki salahiyat mazboot ki ja sakti hai.
