How this is measured
Public RIPE Atlas probes in the two countries send ping tests to each other every few minutes. Radar compares round-trip delay and lost replies with the usual level of that same path. These are network-path measurements between two points, not sensors on a submarine cable, and one slow path does not mean everything between the countries is slow.
