A few more thoughts on the possibility of a Ukrainian Baltic Raid.
We have already seen, in this war, that the Ukrainians are highly adaptable and ingenious. They also have a relatively decentralized command structure with room for autonomously planned and executed missions.
But, they would have needed to get a vessel, plus a whole heap of equipment and depth charges out into the Baltic.
They likely borrowed the boat.
There are millions of Ukrainians currently in Poland, as far as I am aware. Poland has a port on the Baltic at Gdansk? But many Poles would also be happy with this plan. There is already a massive flow of trade between Ukraine and Gdansk (see map).
The Poles have shown strong support for Ukraine and are widely extremely anti-Putin in their views. They really do not look forward to the idea of being incorporated into a new Russian Empire.
It's not so far from Kiev to Gdansk, as long as the Poles are happy to stamp your papers and not look inside your shipping container(s). This is not at all outside the realm of possibility,
Maybe we should be wondering why they didn't do this earlier in the war:

Whatever happened was an act of war. We are playing a very, very serious game here. This could erupt in doomsday.

This would throw a lifeline to oil and gas. Manchin should have understood this was never going to happen.
