The Kremlin has stated it lacks information regarding the oil tanker Boracay, which is under investigation by French authorities for possible involvement in the 'shadow fleet' of the Russian oil trade.
The French Navy announced on Tuesday they are examining the vessel for potential violations, highlighting rising tensions.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov emphasized, however, that the Russian military occasionally had to intervene to maintain order due to provocative actions by foreign nations.
