14 European countries have announced that they are closing the Baltic Sea to Russia’s so-called shadow fleet, according to a joint statement released by the UK government.
The countries warned that tankers concealing their origin, by changing flags, switching off transponders, or operating without proper documentation, will be treated as vessels without nationality. Such ships may be detained without legal risk.
Russia was also accused of deliberately interfering with satellite navigation systems, posing a serious threat to maritime safety and complicating rescue operations in the event of accidents.
The statement was signed by Belgium, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.
