SUBJECT QUOTE
“"To end undersea sabotage, we need to call it out when it happens and say publicly who did it, if possible," Republican Senator Jim Risch plans to say at a hearing, according to prepared remarks seen by Reuters. "We also need a concerted international effort to improve the resiliency of undersea infrastructure and prevent or mitigate the impact of these attacks when they happen."”
