apprehend a Russia-bound oil tanker, implicating it of cruising illegally without a flag.After the vessel, which is under British sanctions,
refused to work together with an attempt to board it, the Estonian Navy said it was escorted to Russian waters
The Russian Federation sent a fighter jet to inspect the scenario, and this fighter jet violated NATO area for near one minute, Estonian
Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna told reporters in the Turkish city of Antalya
We need to understand that Russia has formally attempted and linked itself to the Russian shadow fleet, he stated, speaking ahead of a
conference of NATO foreign ministers
[The] Russian Federation is all set to safeguard the shadow fleet..
The circumstance is actually serious, Tsahkhna added.The vessel, Jaguar, is among more than 100 ships in Russias so-called shadow fleet,
a term Western countries utilize for ships they implicate Moscow of deploying to prevent international sanctions, typically unregulated and
uninsured by Western organizations.Military jets from a NATO policing mission based in the Baltic states removed to examine the Russian
vessel, stated Tsahkhna, who earlier required Russia to deal with harder, much faster sanctions in response to the incident.Russias
Foreign Ministry did not right away respond to an ask for comment.Britain hassaidits sanctions restricting or restricting the motion and
access of the shadow fleet to some of its ports will constrain Russian President Vladimir Putins war effort.
