Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Mao Ning made the statement at a news conference when asked about a Financial Times report that Sweden had criticized China for refusing to grant full access despite an open investigation and for not allowing its state prosecutor to board the suspected Yi Peng 3 vessel.

A Chinese dry cargo ship is on the move again after more than a month of stalling in Danish waters, the Swedish Coast Guard said Saturday. Last week, China allowed representatives from Germany, Sweden, Finland and Denmark to board the ship for an investigation.

“In order to cooperate with the investigation, Yi Peng 3 was suspended for a long period of time, and in order to protect the physical and mental health of the crew, the shipowner company decided to resume its voyage after a comprehensive assessment and consultation with stakeholders,” Mao said.

She added that China has notified all relevant countries in advance and is willing to communicate and cooperate.

Yi Peng 3 came under investigation after two fiber-optic cables - one connecting Finland and Germany and the other connecting Sweden and Lithuania - broke in November, raising suspicions of sabotage and concerns about the security of critical infrastructure.
