    The Russian sense of homour is a bit limited.

    Ferguson said tensions have been flaring between the two parties for some time. While on board the ship two weeks ago, Ferguson said she negotiated with Coast Guard officials who were threatening to fire on the Arctic Sunrise if they persisted in their protests.



    You'd think that would be a hint the Sherrif wants you to leave town and move on.

    Story is updated:

    The incident took place Thursday as the ship was circling an oil platform in the Pechora Sea, an arm of the Barents Sea. The platform was owned by Gazprom, a Russian oil company.

    Russia's Interfax news agency reported that the vessel was to be brought to the northern port of Murmansk following the search.

    Interfax also quoted the Russian foreign ministry as saying the crew of the vessel took "provocative" actions and posed a threat to human life and the environment in the Arctic region.



    Hmmmm.

    From another source:

    Earlier this week, Russian officials detained two crew members who were attempting to climb on to an oil platform. Those crew members were held on a Russian ship before being returned to the Arctic Sunrise, she said.

    I went to Leningrad and Moscow (Lutsk, Vilnius), in the mid 80's. Trip to visit some distant family. ;)

    I'm a good boy! :twisted: At least, that's what I tell myself.
