New Measures Against Illicit Oil Transport
The European Union and United Kingdom have launched a new wave of sanctions aimed at disrupting Russia’s shadow fleet. This fleet is notorious for transporting oil illicitly, circumventing the restrictions imposed due to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. The sanctions specifically target numerous vessels involved in these activities, signaling a strong stance against Russia’s attempts to evade international laws.
These new sanctions are part of a broader strategy to undermine Russia’s economic capabilities. By focusing on the shadow fleet, the EU and UK hope to restrict the revenue that fuels the ongoing war efforts. This decisive action illustrates the international community’s commitment to holding Russia accountable for its actions in Ukraine.
