Moment U.S. forces seized massive oil tanker off Venezuela
“As you probably know, we’ve just seized a tanker on the coast of Venezuela,” Trump said. “Large tanker, very large, largest one ever seized actually.”

Probably. If it were empty they would just turn it around.

Today, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Homeland Security Investigations, and the United States Coast Guard, with support from the Department of War, executed a seizure warrant for a crude oil tanker used to transport sanctioned oil from Venezuela and Iran. For multiple years, the oil tanker has been sanctioned by the United States due to its involvement in an illicit oil shipping network supporting foreign terrorist organizations. This seizure, completed off the coast of Venezuela, was conducted safely and securely—and our investigation alongside the Department of Homeland Security to prevent the transport of sanctioned oil continues.

I think “massive” is implied in “oil tanker.”

Imagine what will happen to global supply chains when the shipping insurance rates rise due to ship seizures.

lol. I could just hear Trump say, “We just seized a teeny tiny oil tanker, small, really, really small, smallest I’ve ever seen, just this side of a row boat...”

An insurance company would be stupid to insure a tanker that has been sanctioned for “multiple years”. I’d say I sanctioned tankers will be fine.

“Unsanctioned tankers” will be fine.

That and also the inevitable blowback that this will cause.
The bad guys are going to start sinking ships.

Would this technically fall under the umbrella of “piracy”? Arrr!

This is the direction things are going though. Its inevitable that the shipping rates people enjoy will be changing. Its been stable for too long.

That ship was not insured and there is no loss.

In what possible scenario could it be in their interest to escalate? I can’t see one.
