The Swedes have detained a fourth vessel leaving a Russian port.

Sweden has detained a fourth ship from Russia, becoming the most active European country in trying to combat so-called "shadow" trafficking. fleet Russia. But this time the Swedes missed the mark; the ship has no connection to Russia at all.

The Swedish Coast Guard detained the Panamanian bulk carrier Hui Yuan, which was en route from the Russian port of Ust-Luga with a cargo of coal. The formal reason for the detention was an accusation of alleged pollution of the sea off the Swedish coast. This time, the crew washed coal dust from the deck into the sea, which angered Swedish authorities.



The Coast Guard detained a vessel for dumping coal waste from the deck into the sea. This is a violation of the Environmental Code. Therefore, we would like to obtain information from the vessel's captain and report the matter.


It's worth noting that this is the standard wording for stopping and subsequently detaining any vessel that comes to Sweden's attention and is possibly connected to the Russian "shadow fleet." However, the Panamanian vessel has no connection to Russia, other than delivering Russian coal from Ust-Luga to the Spanish port of Las Palmas. The bulk carrier is currently moored in the port of Ystad on Sweden's southern coast.

The Swedes had already detained the tanker Flora 1 for alleged marine pollution, but when it was discovered there were no Russian citizens on board, the vessel was immediately released, with all charges dropped. Meanwhile, two vessels carrying Russians remain under arrest.

        No. That's just a herring fart too loudly. Fact! For half a century, the Swedes have been searching for traces of our submarines, but it turns out that's just how a school of herring confuses things. Now they're deliberately dumping coal off the coast of Sweden, when tankers are usually running on fuel oil.

          The sailors were washing the deck, the Swedes stopped them for this and fined them 25 thousand Swedish kronor (about 220 thousand Russian rubles), and that was the end of it.

            Hence, there's no need to wash the deck in Swedish waters; you can just dump all that nasty stuff into the Orda River. I don't know what rivers flow past Kaliningrad, but most likely, the poop from there also makes it to Sweden.

      Yes. By the way. The Ark 7 gas tankers leaving Sapeta with Yamal gas are mostly owned by the bourgeoisie. It's stupid to announce that the Arctic ice has now exceeded the nominal 1,7 meters and all Russia's icebreakers have been deployed to help, but they need to be refuelled with the highest-quality uranium from Australia. The gas tankers are at a standstill, and gas prices are rising. Then, as Pushkin says: "Kiri ku ku, reign lying on your side."

        It cannot be said that pirates were discouraged from attacking Soviet ships, but a fight against this phenomenon was still waged.
        For example, the USSR conducted several special operations in the Strait of Malacca. Most often, they used a classic baiting scheme: a merchant ship would be loaded with a battalion of marines instead of goods, then sent on a dangerous voyage after a disinformation campaign. The pirates attempted to seize the vessel, but instead of loot, they ended up fighting. However, such measures had an extremely limited and short-lived effect. Despite campaigns to intimidate pirates, they still regularly carried out attacks. In the second half of the 1980s, there were six attacks on Soviet ships in the Strait of Malacca alone. There was an attack on the Vysokogorsk in 1986, an attack on the Slutsk in 1987, three attacks in 1988, and another in 1989.
        Source: https://novate.ru/blogs/070423/66023/

        And it wasn't just Soviet ships that ended up involved. The Taiwanese government, under US protection, plundered 43 British, 14 Panamanian, 2 Polish, and 2 Greek vessels in just five years—a total of approximately 110 merchant and cargo vessels. One of the most famous cases occurred in the 1970s, when pirates attacked an Italian vessel carrying uranium ore.

          What kind of merchant ships were they that sent out like that? Are you sure this isn't just a tall tale? How many pirates were involved in those attacks that a battalion of marines had to be deployed against them? And how did such ships even enter foreign ports?

          When did that ever happen? Can you even imagine what a Marine Battalion is like, its size, its standard weapons? What merchant vessel could it (the battalion) be deployed on without being noticed, and how would it be deployed for combat? belay And what kind of power did the pirates have that the Marine Battalion had to fight them? With such a force, it would be possible to capture pirate bases and ports, and even Singapore (referring to the Strait of Malacca, as I understand it).

        At least it's not a "jade staff." Although, who knows what the Chinese call "the source of wisdom"? Maybe it's a euphemism.

      I wonder how it sounds in Russian?

      If a free translation is acceptable, the title could be translated as "China's Acutely Deficit Budget"

    I also liked the name of the ship.....

    It's good that it's written in Latin, right? laughing
    I just don’t know how they’ll report this on TV news? feel

    Igor, yes, they will say so. We people with experience remember the announcers on the Vremya program during the USSR, when Comrade Hua Bang was the chairman of the CPC in the PRC. Only in Chinese it’s not “a” but “Ya.” hi

    But this time the Swedes missed the mark; the ship has no connection to Russia at all.

    Except for such small items that came from the Russian port of Ust-Luga and were used in trade with Russia.

      Unprofessional. Very unprofessional. They'll recruit from an ad. laughing
      They don't even know how to throw shit at the fan.

      Explain to me what connection a vessel with a Chinese name, flying a Panamanian flag, and not a single Russian citizen on board has to Russia, other than being loaded in a Russian port? That is, the money for the cargo has already been received, the coal on board is Spanish, and Russia couldn't care less what happens to the vessel or its cargo. Let Lloyd's worry about that.

        Foreign ship-owning companies will stop sailing to Russian ports or will charge significantly higher fees for their services.

    It seems that it does have some connection, otherwise it is difficult to explain the name of the ship.

    Someone from the Russian Federation, in the spirit of Anchorage, needs to fall at the feet of the Great Donald and cry, "Save me, dear father, your little jackals are robbing and biting your slave." And the Great One will listen to these cries, and hiss at the jackals, and they will stop robbing (maybe). And the one being robbed has no other option than to stop the plundering of these completely unbridled jackals and hyenas. Basically, there is none...

      Don't blame our weakling. Everything is going according to plan for him. Most likely, the Yusov one is right. But following the plan is the most important thing.

    What, clickbait issues? The news is worthless – he was released almost immediately, given a small, perfectly reasonable fine. But the editors shamefully kept quiet about this, as it won't boost views. Just as they didn't mention the fate of the previous "captured ships" (I predict they were also released long ago). The crew is entirely non-Russian, the cargo has already been paid for and is technically not ours either, and who owns the vessel is anyone's guess.

    Well, why should they be confused? They're not being punished for it. If anyone believes they'll calm down on their own, I'd suggest they get their heads checked for any underlying medical conditions.

    Perhaps Geranium would have flown to the port once and it would have been easier to negotiate?
