Third parties could be required to do more to block tankers from operating in Baltic and the Channel
are discussing plans to require third parties to do more to block the Russian shadow oil tanker fleet operating in the Baltic and the Channel, the Finnish foreign minister has said.
Valtonen, a fluent German speaker, also laid out new domestic legislation that she said could act as a model for the rest of Europe to fend off what Finland believes is an attempt by Russia to destabilise her country by forcing third country nationals over the border. Critics say the new law gives too much discretion to border guards, restricts rights of appeal and contravenes the European convention on human rights.
“We will make use of international organisations and also see to which extent the international maritime law allows us to effectively prohibit such traffic.”
