If the Russians loudly pontificate this then it’s business as usual. If they stay silent, it means things are very much changing behind the scenes.
How is UK involved ?
Yea good. Keep doing it.
Good, very good.
Open piracy, do we expect the era of letters of marque to be revived again?
The headline of the linked article is:
# US forces trying to seize oil tanker after pursuit across the Atlantic in escalation of shadow fleet stand-off
“US forces trying to seize oil tanker after pursuit across the Atlantic in escalation of shadow fleet stand-off”
Is the original title. There’s no indication the UK is involved.
Was this the tanker that the Russians sent a submarine and other navel assets to protect? If so, thats a big fuck you to the russians.
Edit: I’m looking for confirmation that the tanker was actually seized. So far all I see is there is an attempt going on right now involving helicopters.
There’s no indication in the article that UK forces are involved.
Somebody hit the UK really hard with a stupid stick or something, because they seem to gone off the rails?
Didn’t Putler just send a sub and 2 warships to escort it?
1) this is almost certainly illegal under international laws of the seas
2) fuck russia, they can eat a dick
Conflicted by the process, happy with the result
Good. More of this. And the fact a ton of those US planes took off from UK should be rubbed in the US’ faces re Greenland.
Edit: weird thing to downvote. Yanks, you won’t be able to do this as easily if you lose your Euro bases. Calm your tits.
Title does not match the content of the article (“US forces trying to seize oil tanker after pursuit across the Atlantic in escalation of shadow fleet stand-off”)
Isn’t this gonna start a war? I thought Russia had just sent in military ships or subs and they were escorting it?
Why did you change the headline to say “UK and US”? The UK had no involvement. Even in the article linked, it doesn’t say that anywhere, and even says;
> Any US military operation launched from or near the UK would be expected to be coordinated with London. The Ministry of Defence declined to comment, saying it does not discuss the military activities of other nations.
Was it full?
TACO soon will say “those were bad bad marines, very bad ones. actually one of the worst marines ive ever seen in my life. vladimir and i have come to the conclusion that this was just a minor mistake and that it wont affect US-Russia-Friendship *choking sounds*”
Goddamn that thing does NOT look seaworthy.
Uk and us. Is this the special relationship. Jump like a lap dog shouting here here . What exactly did the uk do. Give them Tesco points on their fuel .
Is Trump fucking dead yet or what?
I don’t care about ANYTHING ELSE.
If that’s true, Russia may go fully mental. And believe me, nobody wants them going mental. They might actually drop a spare Tsar Bomba on Ukraine as a reverse ‘fk you’.
How’s that for a checkmate, Kremlin?
Another loss for you.
Lmao look at all you china EU shills “how is the uk involved wtf?”
Yeah… we aint fucking the US off for you guys, we are too connected in our armed forces. Hence we left the EU. 🤣
Uk showing balls for once. Excellent
Why go to this much of a hassle for an empty tanker? The time and resources spent surely aren’t worth it. What am I missing?
What a mighty move! America really is the Big Daddy, after Maduro’s capture and this.
Greetings from Finland.
Isn’t Russia’s entire worldview built on the idea that superpowers (they see themselves as one) can do whatever they want? Well, this is what happens when an actual superpower does just that. Russia wanted a world where might makes right. This is the result. As Qui-Gon Jinn said, “There’s always a bigger fish.”
Where the heck do you get UK involvement from? **US forces trying to seize oil tanker after pursuit across the Atlantic in escalation of shadow fleet stand-off.**
Why is the uk doing literally everything Trump says. We so fucking spineless. We should stick with Europe. I appreciate it will take time to uncoil from US independence but the ‘special relationship’ does not exist. If Russia attacked the UK I doubt Trump would come to our rescue. He just takes a view that the weaker side must perish.
Trump is now a good guy.
Go and scrub all anti- Trump posts now 😃
>Brockman added: “With Marinera, it was previously flying falsely under the flag of Guyana. Under United Nations Convention of the Law of the Sea, there’s a provision called Article 110 that allows a stateless vessel to be boarded by authorities. By reflagging to Russia, the vessel is no longer able to be boarded under this provision.”
They won’t be able to keep it…
