Unfortunately, the Russians continue to exploit various jurisdictions around the world, operating under different corporate covers. They are exploiting Europe as well—and this is extremely serious. In 2025 alone, Russia involved more than 122 vessels in its oil trade that are operated or legally owned by European entities. This... show more

We continue working on sanctions against Russia, targeting those who help finance its war against Ukraine. Today, I discussed this with the UK Foreign Secretary during his visit to Ukraine. It is crucial to keep pressuring Putin’s shadow tanker fleet, which moves oil around the world, funding Russian terror and war. The UK is one of the leaders in taking action against this fleet. But sanctions should go beyond just the tankers and companies involved—they must also target the captains of these vessels and all individuals connected to them. Ukraine has already taken such measures, and we are working to expand them across our partners’ jurisdictions.

Today, we have introduced a new sanctions package zeroing in on Russia’s activities in the Arctic. This is one of Russia’s cash cows: A significant portion of the resources the enemy sells each year are extracted precisely from the lands and waters of the Arctic—tens of billions of dollars annually. We are working with partners so that, just as measures have been implemented against the tanker fleet and Russia’s oil companies, similar actions will be taken by them against all the volumes of resources the Russians sell from the Arctic. This is fair. Any means of curbing Russia’s revenues is an effective way to counter the war.

I am awaiting a detailed intelligence report on the impact of the U.S. sanctions against Russian oil companies. Preliminary data are rather promising – the effect is significant. We are verifying the details, and every remaining scheme Russia still uses must be blocked. The world has to read the room correctly: Russia must end its war. Otherwise, Russia’s oil exports must end. I thank all our partners who are exerting pressure in this way – effectively, tangibly, and targeting the areas that are truly painful for Putin’s system.

Zelensky: Putin still has guarantees of financial stability. A large part of those guarantees lies here in Europe. Russian oil tankers still move freely along Europe’s shores—in the Baltic Sea, the North Sea, and the Mediterranean. Overall, Russia still uses more than a thousand tankers. I recently discussed this with President Macron, with President von der Leyen, and with other leaders, and I thank them for their willingness to fix this. We spoke about it in detail. It is important to block this entire fleet—all these tankers—and to have them confiscated, the same way the United States acts against shadow fleet tankers near its own shores.

During these weeks, while the UN General Assembly was taking place, Russia literally used every day, every hour to strike Ukraine. Treacherous strikes. And this is what defines Russia – what they do, not what they say or send out as signals around the world. They have spurned all genuine peace proposals and deserve truly tough pressure. This week we expect decisions from Europe on such pressure – at the very least, a new sanctions package, the 19th. It is especially important that sanctions hit painfully at Russia’s energy trade and the entire infrastructure of its tanker fleet. Moreover, intelligence now indicates that the Russians are using tankers to launch and operate drones against European countries. This is yet more evidence why the Baltic Sea and other seas must be closed to Russian tankers – at the very least to the shadow fleet. We also count on strong steps from the United States. We discussed with President Trump what could truly push Russia to change its position and stop the war. The world has tools that can work in a genuinely peace-making way.

The continued easing of sanctions against Russia does not reflect the real situation in the war or in diplomacy and fuels the Russian leadership’s illusion that they can continue the war. This week alone, the Russians have launched over 2,360 attack drones, more than 1,320 guided aerial bombs, and nearly 60 missiles of various types at our cities and communities. Every dollar paid for Russian oil is money for the war. More than 110 tankers from Moscow’s shadow fleet are currently at sea. On board are over 12 million tons of Russian oil, which, due to the easing of sanctions, can once again be sold without consequences. That is $10 billion – a resource that is directly converted into new strikes against Ukraine. That is why it is important that Russian tankers are stopped, not allowed to deliver oil to ports. The aggressor’s oil exports must decrease, and Ukraine’s long-range sanctions continue to work toward that goal. I am grateful to every one of our warriors for their precision, and I thank all partners who are helping to increase pressure on Russia for this war.

Zelensky said that the EU must change its legislation to confiscate Russian oil, saying Europe should not release detained shadow fleet tankers after a few days. "We don't want Russians to earn because they use that income for war against us." #Ukraine

During his speech today in front of the 56th Annual Summit of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky criticized Europe for its inability to properly defend against or punish Russia, specially stating, “Europe loves to discuss the future, but avoids taking action today. Action that defines what kind of future we will have. That is the problem. Why can President Trump stop tankers from the Shadow Fleet and seize oil, but Europe doesn't? Russian oil is being transported right along European shores. That oil funds the war against Ukraine. That oil helps destabilize Europe.” Less than a hour later, France announced that it has intercepted, boarded, and seized a sanction stateless oil tanker with the Russian Shadow Fleet in the Mediterranean.

Today I want to especially thank all our warriors who are inflicting truly significant losses on Russia. Losses at the front. Losses along the border. Losses on Russia’s own territory thanks to our long-range strikes. The most effective sanctions – the ones that work the fastest – are the fires at Russia’s oil refineries, its terminals, oil depots. To significantly restrict Russia’s oil industry is to significantly restrict the war. Russia’s war is essentially a function of oil, of gas, of all its other energy resources. I thank the special forces of the Security Service of Ukraine, who did a great job in Primorsk recently, hitting Russia’s largest oil terminal on the Baltic Sea. There is substantial damage; everything has been verified. And this is tangible for the enemy. Our special forces are also keeping an eye on the port of Ust-Luga and all other Russian points of access to the world market. Today, the Security Service of Ukraine’s drones are capable of operating at distances of more than a thousand kilometres. The Special Operations Forces, the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Foreign Intelligence Service, and the Defense Intelligence are also involved. I thank them all for their accuracy.

ZELENSKYY: Today we have reason to express special gratitude to Britain. They have detained Russian oil tanker off their shores — this is the first such step taken by United Kingdom. We must stop Russia’s shadow fleet to bring Russia’s war closer to a halt. Thank you, Britain!

Over the past week, Russia launched nearly 1,550 attack drones against Ukraine, more than 1,260 guided aerial bombs, and two missiles. Over that same week, due to the easing of sanctions, Russia increased its crude oil sales to finance its war. Revenues give Russia a sense of impunity and the ability to continue the war. That is why pressure must continue and sanctions must work. Russia’s shadow fleet must not feel safe in European waters or anywhere else. Tankers that serve the war budget can and must be stopped and blocked, not just let go. I thank every leader who makes such decisions. This is what brings a dignified peace closer.

We have repeatedly offered Russia a ceasefire at least for Easter. But for them, all times are alike and nothing is sacred. If Russia can afford this war, it will not choose peace willingly. Only significant financial losses force Russia to consider a scenario of abandoning this war. Currently, the oil market is in a fragile state due to the unresolved situation around Iran. Oil-producing countries, including Russia, may now earn more. Our drones and missiles are limiting Russia’s ability to do so. I thank those partners who continue to apply pressure through sanctions, the stopping of tankers, and restrictions on the supply of advanced equipment to Russia. Everything Russia earns from elevated oil prices will be spent on this war. That is why every restriction on Russia’s ability to export oil is the right step. If Russia is ready to stop strikes on our energy infrastructure, we will be ready to respond in kind. This proposal has been conveyed to the Russian side through the Americans.

Russia’s main targets right now are our energy sector, critical infrastructure, and residential buildings. This week alone, the Russians have launched more than 1,700 attack drones, over 1,380 guided aerial bombs, and 69 missiles of various types. Every massive attack by Russia can become devastating. That is why missiles for air defense systems are needed every day, and we continue working with the United States and Europe to ensure stronger protection of our skies. Today in Vilnius, we are coordinating with our partners in the region – Lithuania and Poland. We are working with every leader to strengthen Ukraine. Everyone must clearly understand the threat coming from Russia, and it is our nations who understand this best. I thank everyone who is helping us stand strong.

The Panamanian-flagged and Turkish-owned oil tanker, M/T MERSIN, alleged to be affiliated with the Russian Shadow Fleet, is currently sinking off the coast of Dakar, Senegal in Western Africa, after reportedly coming under attack overnight by several uncrewed surface vessels, in possibly the third attack in the last week by Ukrainian Intelligence Services against a tanker linked to Russia.

Russian shadow fleet not just allows Russia to earn money for its war on Ukraine but is also an environmental catastrophe waiting to happen. In a September video by Yle. fi, experts explain that about 70% of the tankers used in the Russian shadow fleet are at least 15 years old. They do not go through proper servicing which increases the risk of technical issues and malfunctions. A lot of these vessels have been blacklisted in the first place because their condition is so bad (meaning they are not allowed to sail) but they still continue voyaging through the Gulf of Finland, for example. Many of them sail under the jurisdictions of different countries, which makes them harder to track. The risk of an oil spill is getting more and more likely - and the shadow vessels carry tens of thousands tons of oil. The environmental disaster that would follow would have an unprecedented scale. It will affect all forms of wildlife and sea life, destroy the business of fishermen and coastal tourism for years, if not decades. Its aftermath for the environment would be indescribable, and the costs to mitigate such a disaster will be exorbitant. Since Russian shadow fleet tankers mostly don't have proper insurance, there is very little chance that any payments will follow that will cover the costs. These expenses will have to be borne by the country/countries near which this will happen, combined with future economic losses caused by damage to the environment. Moreover, Russian shadow fleet tankers are an extra burden for the coast guards as they have to check more vessels (again, many of them are in very poor condition) and have extra training, working on scenarios of possible environmental disasters. According to experts quoted by Yle. fi, from January 2022 to August 2024, 380 million tons of Russian oil and other petroleum products went through the Gulf of Finland, earning Russia more than $220 billion for the war in Ukraine. It is obvious at this point that tackling Russian shadow fleet and cutting off or substantially decreasing Russian oil profits is a top priority towards ending the war and ensuring lasting peace. However, as with almost everything in this war, stopping Russia is also very important for the environment - globally and locally. Currently, this fleet is a ticking bomb that can explode tens of thousand of oil into water at any moment.
