Sukru Okan staff was compelled to its knees at gunpoint by Russians
Perhaps hurt by social networks blog posts claiming that its boarding of the Turkish- had freight ship Sukru Okan was phony information, and even entailed a various ship, the Russian Ministry of Defense has actually currently launched its very own video clip of the boarding.
You can attract your very own verdicts on exactly how the boarding, which occurred in worldwide waters, was carried out, with staff participants compelled on their knees at gunpoint.
Something that arises is that the boarding was a lot more regular with the CNN record of the occurrence that we kept in mind the other day than with the first Russian state-controlled media variation, with the Sukru Okan‘s Turkish staff maintaining precisely cruising up until compelled to close the engines down.
What continues to be to be seen is the level to which the Sukru Okan boarding belongs to a placing initiative by Russia to close down Ukrainian grain exports by means of the Danube and Romanian ports. Already Russia has launched missile attacks on Ukraine’s own Danube ports.
Is it currently attempting to daunt ships from calling Romanian ports?
