European Parliament Wants to Ban Tankers Carrying Russian Oil from Entering English Channel
The European Parliament is preparing a resolution proposing to tighten measures against Russia's shadow fleet.
One of the main points of the document is a ban on the passage of tankers carrying Russian oil through the English Channel.
The document calls on EU countries and Great Britain to sanction ships transporting Russian oil and to strengthen satellite monitoring, TASS reports.
It is also proposed to introduce new requirements for proof of insurance for vessels operating in EU waters.
The European Parliament proposes to ban the passage of Russian tankers by water through the English Channel.
The vote on the resolution will take place at the end of November. The document is advisory in nature and its adoption will not be mandatory for EU countries.
However, the ban could significantly complicate the transportation of Russian oil through EU waterways.
