These submarine probes went on for > 20 years. Also, when the subs would get stuck on sand bars, the sailors would turn out to be speaking Russian. I don't think the US had the language skills to pull that off ;-) On one level, I would like to think that someone in the giant US defense aparatus was able to plan and conduct some operations like that. Maybe it did happen a few times, to derail movements for closer relations between Sweden and Russia. I expect > 95% of the activity was (and is) Russian. Sweden was "even handed" during the cold war too, and sold anti-aircraft guns to North Vietnam. While 'neutral' in WWII Sweden was a big manufacturing base for Germany, helping them get around the Versailles treaty restrictions on building aircraft, and then as a major supplier to the German war machine for a long time.
