US Allows Russian Oil Tanker to Sail to Cuba
On March 30, according to The New York Times, a U.S. official familiar with the matter revealed that the U.S. Coast Guard has allowed a Russian oil tanker loaded with crude oil to sail to Cuba, a move that provides much-needed energy supplies to the island nation. This comes after months of effective oil blockade measures implemented by the Trump administration. According to maritime data provider MarineTraffic, the tanker, owned by the Russian government and carrying approximately 730,000 barrels of oil, was less than 15 miles from Cuban territorial waters on Sunday afternoon. Sailing at a speed of 12 knots, the vessel is expected to enter Cuban waters on Sunday evening. The oil tanker is anticipated to arrive at Cuba's Matanzas port on Tuesday. (Jins10)
