“All the means available to Russia. A fairly wide palette of means is available. Of course, within the framework of international legislation,” he said.
“As the latest events related to the attempt of the Pirate attack on one of the tankers have shown, Russia has shown that it is able to respond rather rigidly,” he said, commenting on recent incidents with attempts to detain tankers in the Baltic Sea.
We will remind, a few days ago the Navy Estonia tried to stop the Jaguar tanker, which passed through the international waters of the Gulf of Finnish in the direction of the port of Primorsk. It is believed that the ship belongs to the “shadow fleet” of the Russian Federation.
According to the available data, the tanker crew refused to follow the instructions of Estonian border guards, but the ship left the economic waters of Estonia.
Also, in response to the actions of the Estonian military, Russia was sent by the fighter, which, according to the Estonian army, violated the country’s airspace.
The Foreign Minister of Estonia Margus Tsakhkn said that the incident indicates that Russia is ready to defend its “shadow fleet”.
