EU prepares the large -scale detentions of the Shadow Fleet of the Russian Federation

European countries consider the possibility of large -scale detentions of Russian tanks in the Baltic Sea to block ways of avoiding penalties. For this, negotiations are carried out to enact new laws, which will give such actions a legal weight. Politico reported it.

In particular, Finnish authorities were confined to the Eagle s Tanker in December, suspected of damage to the underwater power line between Estonia and Finland. The ship brought 100 thousand barrels of oil from St. Petersburg. This detention is a signal for the opening of a new facade in the resistance to the Russian scheme of the penalties of penalties.

According to resources, there are many situations for consideration: The use of international law for arresting courts for environmental or pirate factors, as well as joint introduction of new national laws to Stop Russia’s more tanks in expanded sea zones.

Growing shadow fleet activity brings further concerns in Europe. According to estimates, it has up to 17% of the world’s fleet of tanks and delivers more than 80% of all Crude oil in Russia.

The Baltic Sea became the main artery of this illegal trade: last year 348 shadow fleet ships came from there, which was 40% of Russia’s total oil sales.

So, having it in the Baltic Sea improves NATO. Representative of the Baltic alliance in Baltic, Peter Nech said the vehicles could be confined and evaluated in NATO operations in extraordinary cases, in particular, if we were talking about a threat of critical Infrastructure. Wojskowy Instut Wydawniczy reported this.

“The NATO leaders are increasingly considering the infrastructure attacks as a threat of freedom of shipping, which can be the basis for the restraint and inspection of the courts,” Nhech explained.

He emphasized that the main rate of alliance is a constant manifestation of the existence, strengthening the intelligence and the development of modern technologies.

All 32 NATO member countries have joined the Baltic Sentry operation.

Therefore, the resistance to the shadow fleet of the Russian Federation is getting a new turnover, and the Baltic Sea can be an arena of a huge -scale confrontation between the West and Moscow.

We reminded that Vladimir Zelensky had previously called European Union countries to participate in sanctions against the Shadow fleet of the Russian Federation.
