ePub Army Badges and Insignia Since 1945: Book One by Guido Rosignoli in History

Description

Following the stranding of a Soviet Whiskey-class submarine in 1981 on the Swedish archipelago; a series of massive submarine intrusions took place within Swedish waters.However; the evidence for these appears to have been manipulated or simply invented. Classified documents and interviews point to covert Western; rather than Soviet activity. This is backed up by former US Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger; who stated that Western "testing" operations were carried out regularly in Swedish waters. Royal Navy submarine captains have also admitted to top-secret operations.Ola Tunander's revelations make it clear that the United States and Britain ran a "secret war" in Swedish waters. The number of Swedes perceiving the Soviet Union as a direct threat increased from 5-10 per cent in 1980 to 45 per cent in 1983. This Anglo-American "secret war" was aimed at exerting political influence over Sweden. It was a risky enterprise; but perhaps the most successful covert operation of the entire Cold War.
