This situation is potentially quite serious if the Swedes start lobbing depth charges in their waters.

The title poses the question.....

There's not a lot that Britain can do other than stand back and watch. We'd be affronted if the Swedes offered to help us with a sub lurking near a Scottish Oil terminal.

Oddly, there was a Wallander episode in the most recent series (the Swedish with subtitles ones) involving a submarine intrusion of just this sort.

I think it's a regular occurrence. The Russians are always p155ing about in Swedish waters doing god knows what, so it's something of an issue there.

In answer to the question, it's nothing to do with Britain really.
