Arte: How can the EU stop Russia's shadow fleet?

Hundreds of ghost ships are transporting Russian oil and funding Russia's war chest, while putting marine ecosystems in danger and threatening EU security. The EU is now ramping up sanctions to try to stop these hard-to-trace vessels. But will it be enough?

This programme is produced by the European platform ARTE and available in 10 languages through the European media partnership "EMOVE Hub". The hub is coordinated by ARTE and includes Balkan Insight (BIRN), Sinopsis (BIRN Romania), El País (ES), Gazeta Wyborcza (PL), Internazionale (IT), Ir, (LV), Kathimerini (GR), Le Soir (BE) and Telex (HU). The partnership receives EU-funding following DG CNECT’s call for „European Media Hubs” within the framework of the EU’s Multimedia Actions.
