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.
