UK Govt Moves Like a Bull on Russia’s Oil Pirates
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has sounded the alarm over Russia’s mole‑like oil market, calling the shadow fleet a clean‑cut threat to the UK’s national security.
Why the Big Bear‑Roar Matters
“We can’t afford to blink,” Starmer said, promising the UK will “do everything in our power to destroy” the illicit tanker operation that’s been carrying up to $24 billion worth of cargo since early 2024.
How the Gassy Assaults Are Rated Top
- 100 rogue oil tankers are slated for a swift showdown.
- They’re running the gauntlet by ignoring Western sanctions.
- Standard crew? None – just an AI‑infused crew that still makes a dent in our cherished undersea cables.
Starmer wails that these maritime “drones” are exercising “reckless seafaring,” risking damage to essential infrastructure like the undersea cable that keeps our streaming, phones, and coffee machines humming.
What’s the Pay‑off?
“Stressing Moscow will be a step toward security and prosperity for the UK and a stride toward peace for Ukraine,” Starmer boasted. “We’ll starve Putin’s war machine of oil revenues while safeguarding the network that keeps our lights on, our phones buzzing, and our coffee machines humming.”
He assured that the UK government will protect working people from bearing the brunt of Putin’s fleet, promising to keep that costly danger from damaging the environment and the economy.
