πΊπΈThe oil tankers seized by Trump are costing the US tens of millions of dollars, - NYT
The US campaign to seize oil tankers transporting oil from countries under US sanctions has turned out to be much more expensive than expected.
The maintenance of just one tanker, Skipper, has already cost the US 47 million dollars over three months, with the cost of the ship itself estimated at around 10 million dollars.
