Estonia

The Shipping Administration and the Estonian Center for International Development (ESTDEV) have signed a memorandum of cooperation.

After Russia promised to take measures to protect its ships, it began escorting tankers from its “shadow fleet” in the Gulf of Finland.

Estonian scientists say Russian Navy has stolen a wave-measuring buoy in the Baltic Sea.

After Russia detained a tanker from Estonia in its waters, the country will redirect ships to another route.

Estonia has said it will continue to inspect Russian “shadow fleet” vessels, despite the recent incident with a Russian fighter jet violating Estonian airspace.

The oil tanker Green Admire, which was heading from the Estonian port of Sillamäe to Rotterdam, was detained by Russia in the Baltic Sea. Estonia informed NATO allies about the incident.

The incident with the Jaguar tanker has shown that the Russian military is ready to protect the “shadow fleet.”

Estonian military prevented a possible threat to underwater infrastructure by removing the vessel from a potentially dangerous area.

The head of the Estonian Foreign Ministry said that the country will coordinate actions more closely with partners for the safety of maritime infrastructure and environmental protection.

Estonian authorities are demanding that technical deficiencies be corrected and insurance checks be carried out before allowing the vessel to continue its voyage.
