US EditionEstonia says Russia detained a tanker in Baltic Sea
- Russia detained the Greek-owned, Liberia-flagged oil tanker Green Admire on Sunday after it left Estonia's Sillamäe port in the Baltic Sea.
- The vessel used a navigation route passing through Russian territorial waters, which was established through a tripartite agreement between Estonia, Finland, and Russia to circumvent shallow areas within Estonian maritime zones.
- The detention occurred shortly after Estonia's recent effort to stop a tanker headed to Russia on suspicion of evading sanctions, amid escalating tensions and worries about Russia's covert fleet operating in the Baltic Sea.
- Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna described the event as indicative of Russia's ongoing erratic behavior and confirmed that NATO partners had been notified.
- Estonia will redirect its shipping traffic to avoid Russian waters to prevent further incidents, indicating ongoing regional maritime security challenges linked to sanctions enforcement.
