Finnish energy company Fingrid has informed Russian telecommunications operators that it will stop maintaining power line towers that support optical fiber cables by 2027. This decision comes after Russia stopped supplying electricity to Finland in 2022, making maintenance uneconomical. Around 60-70% of Russia's international internet traffic passes through Finland, with up to 30% of communication lines with Finland on power lines. Russian operators are exploring alternative routes through Belarus, Baltic countries, and undersea cables.
