Maritime logistics is critical for building up the aggressor`s military capabilities, moving troops, obtaining weapons and sanctioned items, and trafficking in stolen goods. Aggressors transport weapons through international straits on civilian merchant ships. Fossil fuel exports, bypassing sanctions, are the main source of income for russia and Iran. The shadow tanker fleet and ships without ice class in the Arctic threaten an environmental disaster. Through the sale of agricultural products from the temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories, russia finances the war and maintains the loyalty of its allies - Syria, Iran, and the DPRK.
Together we can stop this to restore peace and security
Actions to be taken:
  • to sanction the vessels on the list below, as well as all related companies and individuals (owners, operators, managers, executives, senior crew members)

  • to require bank statements to confirm compliance with the price-cap when receiving insurance and other services
  • to involve financial and specialized institutions in the gathering of evidence, to publish the results of investigations, and to apply real penalties, including significant fines
