“Sweden spent €2.2 million to track down an imaginary Russian submarine,” Rogozin tweeted on Friday. “One might think they are grownup people but still they are doing such an utter nonsense.”

The operation to track down the submarine in the water area of Stockholm Archipelago was launched October 17, with Swedish media claiming that the probable subject of the search was a Russian submarine. Svenska Dagbladet daily surmised that the submarine might have sustained technology failure.
Russian Defense Ministry insisted from the first day of the operation no Russian submarine had entered the zone of the search.
