Umm, you failed to mention that it was a Russian tanker, and the operation was carried out with the support of several allies. The EU has imposed 19 packages of sanctions against Russia since its full-scale invasion of Ukraine to stop Russian oil revenues from financing war in Ukraine.

The tanker intercepted on Thursday was sailing from Murmansk in northern Russia reportedly under a Comoros flag and has nothing directly to do with Venezuela.
