Starmer orders British commandos to seize Putin's shadow fleet vessels
"Sir Keir Starmer has announced the UK will start confiscating Russian shadow fleet vessels as he steps up attempts to put pressure on Vladimir Putin over the war in Ukraine."
"The move means that Britain's commandos will be able to board and halt Russia's shadow fleet vessels as they pass through UK waters."
"The prime minister will travel to Helsinki, Finland, on Thursday for a summit with national leaders from the Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF)."
The UK government, led by Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, will begin confiscating Russian shadow fleet vessels to increase pressure on Vladimir Putin regarding the ongoing war in Ukraine. This initiative aligns with actions taken by European allies, including France, Belgium, and Sweden, who have already boarded Russian ships. The UK aims to intercept tankers violating sanctions more aggressively. Starmer is set to attend a summit in Helsinki with leaders from the Joint Expeditionary Force, a military coalition of northern European countries.
