"From @Mar_Ex: Russian ambassador to the UK Andrey Kelin responded to her comments with an angry warning and he said that shadow fleet tankers may soon be escorted by Russian government vessels. "What politicians in London are talking about is essentially a return to the era of the pirate Edward Teach known as Blackbeard" Kelin told Izvestia. "What they forget is that Britain has long ceased to be the 'ruler of the seas' and its actions will not go unpunished." Like I said before it's time for everyone to watch Master and Commander again. @TankerTrackers @UANI @mercoglianos @cdrsalamander"

"That is my understanding of what the basis for the "visit" would be if they went through the process to articulate it which we don't actually know officially but can only presume at this point in time. Further the US apparently did not recognize the claim by several of the tankers that they switched to flag during their voyage when jumping the blockade/quarantine around Venezuela"

"The odd story of the Dark Fleet Tanker RCELEBRA (9286073) continues. Seemingly caught and then released by Malaysian Coast Guard then passed the Singapore Strait today she has now maneuvered into possible anchorage and stopped near Johor Malaysia. Is this inside or outside territorial waters Hard to determine right there. This is not the usual EOPL anchorage used by the Dark Fleet so what is going on Lots of questions remain unanswered. Hope there is clarification. Good time for a Port State Control inspection to check for safety deficiencies. RCELEBRA is sanctioned and also on the @UANI"

He welcomed cooperation with like-minded countries who share Malaysias commitment to responsible and resilient supply chains reaffirming Malaysias position as a credible and viable economic partner in Southeast Asia and the Asia-Pacific." ➡Another shared responsibility about responsible supply chain is the call by @IMOHQ to take action against the Dark Fleet which operate with impunity in Malaysian waters off Eastern Johor"
