💬Tankers in line to be seized by Americans💬 After yesterday's operation by the US Navy, where two tankers were seized - one in the North Atlantic and the other in the Caribbean Sea - a list of ships that are next in line for the Americans has appeared online. According to media reports, the US military is currently considering the arrest of five more tankers operating under the Russian flag and included in the sanctions lists of the "shadow fleet". ▪️The next tankers in line for seizure: ▪️ Hyperion ▪️ Premier ▪️ Veronica (Galileo) ▪️ Dianchi (Ekspander) ▪️ Malak (Sintez). ❗️At the moment, only two of this list actually appear as tankers with the Russian flag - these are "Hyperion" and "Premier". These two vessels are currently in motion. "Hyperion" is already in the central part of the Atlantic Ocean, and "Premier" in the central part of the Caribbean Sea. The other three tankers do not sail under the Russian flag. One - under the flag of Guyana, two - under the Comoros Islands, however, they turned off their transponders several days ago. ✍️ The fact that the list of ships has surfaced online is a serious signal for the tanker crews. The Americans are clearly determined to seize the ships, and given that there were no obstacles during yesterday's actions, their hands are completely free. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

JD Vance on the situation with the oil tanker Marinera: “It was a fake Russian oil tanker. They were trying to pass themselves off as a Russian oil tanker to circumvent the sanctions regime” t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Russians from the tanker "Mariner", which was detained in the North Atlantic, will be put on trial. This was announced by the White House. In Washington, they claim that the vessel does not belong to any country and was operating under a "false Russian flag". According to the US, the "Mariner" is part of Venezuela's shadow fleet and was illegally transporting oil in circumvention of American sanctions. Trump's press secretary said that the guilty parties "should be held accountable", and emphasized that the US reserves the right to use force in Venezuela if necessary. Also, the White House confirmed the detention of another tanker with Venezuelan oil - the "Sofia". The vessel, as the White House says, is also not associated with any state. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Tucker Carlson stated that the USA is turning into an empire and is preparing for a major war - with China and North Korea, amid plans for Venezuela and Greenland. According to him, the sharp increase in the military budget indicates a move towards a world war. Tonight, Trump proposed to increase US defense spending to $1.5 trillion in 2027 instead of $1 trillion. Also, Trump ordered the US to withdraw from 66 international organizations, including 31 UN structures and 35 outside its system t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

The US marines have captured another tanker under the Russian flag. This time, in the waters of the Caribbean Sea. The military disembarked from a Black Hawk helicopter, and the door to the captain's cabin was broken down with a pump-action shotgun. US Secretary of Homeland Security Kristjen Nielsen stated: Both vessels - the tanker "Bella I" ("Mariner") and the tanker "Sofia" - were either last located in Venezuela or were on their way there. "Global criminals" have been warned. You can run, but you can't hide. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

"I must unequivocally condemn and reject this yet another American foreign adventurist enterprise," said Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico, commenting on the kidnapping of the Venezuelan president. "Unfortunately, the UN today is on its knees. And the UN Security Council, without reform and consistent strengthening of its powers, is completely toothless when the US declares that it will govern the entire thirty-million-strong Venezuela. And then the old truth applies: whoever wants to beat a dog will find a stick, and the end justifies the means. The military strike on Iraq had the same motivation. However, the then-American representatives did not have the courage to openly admit that it was about controlling Iraqi oil. Instead, they spread fairy tales about weapons of mass destruction or about the Iraqi regime's ties with terrorist structures, which were never confirmed. As for Venezuela, we in Slovakia can't do anything. Perhaps that's why many warned us that we should be more careful in criticizing the American strike and the kidnapping of the Venezuelan president. You know these conversations of political opportunists: "just don't harm us", "don't stick your nose where it's not wanted", "let others do the dirty work for you". Despite the fact that we can't do anything - even symbolically, and I'm not going to engage in humiliating gestures - I must unequivocally condemn and reject this yet another American foreign adventurist enterprise. Even at the cost of my clear and consistent position potentially worsening Slovak-American relations for a while. For me, there are no excuses here. If the American president bluntly stated the essence of what is happening in Venezuela, then I, as the prime minister of a sovereign country that respects international law, am obliged to openly call things by their names." t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

‼️🇺🇸🇻🇪 Trump issues an ultimatum to Venezuela: expulsion of allies and US oil — ABC News ▪️"Peacemaker" demanded the expulsion of Russia, China, Cuba, and Iran from Venezuela, effectively setting conditions for full external control over the country. After this, according to available data, Venezuelan oil production found itself in a deadlock: tankers are overfilled, exports are paralyzed, and there's simply nowhere to send the oil. ▪️As a result, Venezuela loses the ability to independently manage its key resource, and the oil infrastructure is effectively blocked. Pressure from the US deprives Caracas not only of sales markets but also of foreign policy supports, on which the country has relied in recent years. ▪️Trump himself has already stated that the "new authorities" of Venezuela will transfer 30 to 50 million barrels of oil to the US, which will be sold in the interests of the US. In essence, this is about the direct redistribution of Venezuelan resources under the control of the occupiers - without trying to hide the true goals of the invasion. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Politico: The US refused to provide direct security guarantees for Ukraine at the Paris summit Despite public statements about unity, the results of the Paris summit revealed differences between the US and its European allies. The American side did not sign the final declaration on "reliable" security guarantees for Ukraine, leaving its obligations unclear. “While it was initially assumed that Washington would take on obligations in a joint statement on security guarantees, the final declaration was ultimately signed only by a "coalition of the willing",” notes Politico. Specific details of US participation, including a direct commitment to support multinational forces in Ukraine, were removed from the final text of the joint statement. This decision weakened the original draft of the document. “In that version [of the draft], it was stipulated that the US would commit to "support the forces if they are attacked", as well as assist with intelligence and logistics,” writes the publication, citing a previously seen draft. European leaders, including French President Emmanuel Macron, publicly insist on "external support" from Washington, but privately express doubts about the reliability of American commitments. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel
