Large European Routing Leak Sends Traffic Through China Telecom

Just had this read: https://blog.apnic.net/2019/06/07/large-european-routing-leak-sends-traffic-through-china-telecom/

"Yesterday (6 June 2019), Swiss data centre co-location company Safe Host (AS21217) leaked over 70,000 routes to China Telecom (AS4134) in Frankfurt, Germany, some for over two hours.

China Telecom then announced these routes onto the global Internet redirecting large amounts of Internet traffic destined for some of the largest European mobile networks through China Telecom’s network. Some of the most impacted European networks included Swisscom (AS3303) of Switzerland, KPN (AS1130) of the Netherlands, and Bouygues Telecom (AS5410) and Numericable-SFR (AS21502) of France."

What are your guys thoughts about this?

It is really that China Telecom could have done something against this?
