Denmark warns of risk of military escort of Russian tankers through the Baltic Sea
Denmark cautions that Russia might deploy naval vessels to accompany oil tankers.
Menaces directed at Denmark have escalated. A collection of European nations are contemplating examinations of Russian tankers.
Denmark has cautioned that the Russian naval force might initiate the accompaniment of tankers from the alleged shadow fleet through the Danish waterways to amplify incitements aimed at NATO nations.
Menaces directed at Denmark have grown “more severe,” and Russia currently possesses an augmented capability to contest North Atlantic Treaty Organization participants with “more intimidating military conduct,” the Danish Defence Intelligence Service conveyed in its yearly security prediction yesterday.
This potentially encompasses permitting Russian naval ships to accompany tankers exporting millions of barrels of Moscow’s oil by way of the Baltic Sea.
“Should this occur, it will elevate the degree of strain,” the department articulated.
