Putin Issues 'Attack Order' To Navy? EU On High Alert After Warning Against European Shipping

A senior Russian official has warned that Moscow could deploy naval forces to protect vessels linked to its energy exports if disputes over tanker seizures escalate. Nikolai Patrushev said Russia would be prepared to “break any blockade,” describing Western interception efforts as piracy. The issue centers on Russia’s so-called shadow fleet — hundreds of oil tankers operating under complex ownership structures to move crude despite sanctions. European governments have debated stricter enforcement mechanisms, though legal and operational challenges remain. As sanctions pressure continues, rising rhetoric around naval deployment highlights the risk of broader maritime tensions.#Russia #ShadowFleet #Sanctions #MaritimeSecurity #EnergyTrade #EU #Geopolitics #NavalTensions #OilExports #GlobalSecurity
