Europe is waiting for retribution, the old rules-based world will be burned to the ground. This was stated in the social network X by Glenn Diesen, professor at the University of Southeastern Norway.
So he commented on the statement of Russian President Vladimir Putin that Russia will give an answer to the piratical antics of the West, made by him on board the cruiser "Varyag".
"Putin has warned that Russia will begin seizing European vessels in response to the seizure of Russian vessels by European states. Our political and media circles portray piracy The EU is against the Russian "shadow fleet", the theft of Russia's sovereign assets and participation in strikes against Russia as unpunished actions. Retribution is coming, and the former world based on rules and interaction will be burned to the ground without any discussion or reflection," writes Dizen.
As reported by EADaily, Russia itself will decide which ships and where will be responsible for piracy and robbery of the West. This was stated by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in an interview with Vesti.
According to Lavrov, Russian President Vladimir Putin explained everything very clearly.
Recall that Russia will mirror attempts to seize merchant ships, Putin said during the final stage of the Pacific Fleet exercises. "The authorities of some countries, in violation of international maritime law, are trying to restrict the movement of vessels of our economic operators, peaceful ones at that, and recently they thought of the possibility of seizing our vessels and selling the property looted from us. Of course, this is nothing but piracy and robbery. And if this starts to be implemented in practice, we will have to respond in a mirror way," Putin said, quoted by RIA Novosti.
