(Adnkronos) – The Russian oil tanker ‘Anatoly Kolodkin’ with 730,000 barrels of oil on board is heading to Cuba, defying the blockade imposed by the United States, according to the Kper analysis center. The tanker, owned by the state-owned company Sovkomflot, which left Primorsk on March 8, is also subject to sanctions from the EU, Great Britain, and the United States. Its arrival at the port of Matanzas is scheduled for the 23rd. The ‘Sea Horse’ tanker, registered in Hong Kong, after loading 200,000 barrels of diesel from another cargo off Cyprus last January, is 932 nautical miles from the island of Cuba after an erratic trajectory in the Atlantic.
