Russia’s embassy accused France of violating international law after the French Navy boarded the DF Peak, an oil tanker linked to Russia's shadow fleet.
French authorities identified suspected false flag registration and links to sanctions circumvention.
Moscow is quick to invoke international law. Less eager to explain why the vessel’s registration was in question in the first place.
EU Delegation to North Macedonia retweeted
Russia’s shadow fleet helps sustain Russian oil exports and the revenues financing its illegal war against Ukraine.
The French Navy’s boarding of the DF Peak in the Indian Ocean illustrates how those arrangements are facing increasingly direct enforcement measures.
The more these vessels face legal action, the harder it becomes for Russia to keep its oil exports operating outside of international oversight.

Foreign policy is not just for diplomats.
Today, 20 young people from across Europe and the Western Balkans met with HR/VP @kajakallas in Brussels.
Following talks in Montenegro, they shared proposals on the EU as a reliable geopolitical partner, FIMI and disinformation and the role of youth in peace, security and reconciliation.

The EU has adopted its largest sanctions package, targeting nearly 1,600 individuals and entities supporting Russia’s war against Ukraine.
Now is the time to increase pressure on Moscow, not ease it.

Great discussions on new World Bank report on growth and jobs in North Macedonia, showing lesser GDP convergence of 🇲🇰 with 🇪🇺 in the last decade. Reforms on Rule of Law and economic governance, innovation & skilled jobs boosted by progress on 🇪🇺accession could reverse the course
