Summer 2025: Russian ship « Shtandart » plans illegal stopovers in ports of France, UK, Ireland, Norway, Denmark, Belgium, Spain & Portugal
For the 2025 summer season, the Shtandart, a Russian propaganda ship under sanctions, has launched its commercial campaign for joining its tour of European ports. This time, it is no longer limited to France, Spain, or even the EU. This illustrates its skipper’s sense of impunity, the confidence he has in his networks of influence and the contempt in which he holds our institutions. This also shows that our countries will only be able to put an end to the fraud that has been going on for more than three years if they follow the Spanish example, i.e. by a concerted ban on their territorial waters.

The 14 victories of the “No Shtandart In Europe” collective in 2024
It took two years for the French rule of law in to take action against the Shtandart scandal, which violates EU sanctions because of the power of Russian networks of influence. We owe this to the Spanish example, to a small handful of professional journalists and to a call to order from the European Council. Thanks to them, 2024 will have been the year of 14 great victories.
On February 24, let’s dare to speak up, loud and clear.
February 24, 2024 refers to the sinister second anniversary of the Russian Federation’s large-scale invasion of Ukraine, the climax of a war of aggression launched ten years ago.
