Europe cracks down on Russia's shadow fleet tankers

Original: schattenflotte

Europe is stepping up action against Russia's so-called shadow fleet of ageing tankers used to evade oil sanctions. The French navy intercepted a shadow-fleet tanker in the Indian Ocean, cutting a supply line, while EU foreign policy chief Kallas warned of oil spills along European coasts from the poorly insured vessels. Britain wants to keep sanctions on the fleet, but the USA is considering easing them, creating friction among allies.

Why now: Fresh French naval action, warnings of environmental risk, and a US-British split over sanctions have put the shadow fleet back in the headlines.
