[quote]The Swedish military has called off its week-long search for a suspected submarine in the sea south of Stockholm, officials say.
Russia's defence ministry denied any of its ships were involved.
It was reported to be Sweden's biggest military mobilisation since the Cold War.
Swedish officials had not named any country. However, there were widespread suspicions that the Russian navy was involved.
In a statement, the military said: "This means the bulk of ships and amphibious forces have returned to port." It added that some smaller units would remain in the area.
The statement (in Swedish) did not say why the search had been cancelled.

So, a happy ending for everyone involved?
I wonder if we'll ever know for sure if there was ever a submarine or who it belonged to.

Only when the mysterious green men are patrolling in Stockholm.
And now my facebook is filled with right-wingers calling the prime minister a money waster etc. :v:
It's obviously Russia, if it was Finland or Estonia, Lithuania, or Latvia they would've told us.
Damn, and I was hoping for a scandal when a country with a red, white and blue flag got caught.

We don't have subs. We're not allowed to have subs.

the most plausible theory I've heard is that it was the russian baltic fleet updating their records of nordic and baltic ship signatures or patching up somesort of pre-installed hydrophone systems
in other words routine, this time they just almost got caught
russia, and infact all major powers, do this shit all the time. For example you're deluding yourself if you honestly think the US navy or coast guard hasn't planted the entire Mexican gulf coastline full of hydrophones or don't do any sort of covert surveillance of chinese national waters
