In Amsterdam, the dockers refused to unload the ship with Russian oil
Workers at the Amsterdam port refused to unload the Sunny Liger tanker with Russian oil. Earlier it was also refused to be unloaded in Rotterdam.
This was reported by the Netherlands Broadcasting Corporation NOS.
The oil tanker Sunny Liger is sailing from Primorsk and is located 40 km off the coast of the Netherlands, according to Vesselfinder vessel tracking system. According to the agency, the union convinced port workers not to participate in the unloading of the ship. A day earlier, workers at the Port of Rotterdam also refused to accept the tanker.
The municipality of Amsterdam said that they consider the unloading of the tanker Sunny Liger undesirable.
We support the workers of the port,” said Mayor Femke Halsema.
At the same time, the Dutch authorities said that they have no legal grounds to prohibit the vessel from entering the port, since the tanker sails under the flag of the Marshall Islands and does not fall under EU sanctions, NOS reports.
