Scholz will strengthen measures against the oil fleet of the Russian Federation


Germany is likely to intensify the fight against “grey” exports of Russian oil.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz announced plans to step up measures against the Kremlin’s so-called shadow fleet. “European Truth”writes about it.

The chancellor noted that the outdated tankers that Russia uses to transport oil pose a risk to shipping safety as well as marine ecology.

Scholz hopes to unite the efforts of the EU countries in a global coalition to put an end to Russia’s illegal activities at sea.
