The ship « Shtandart » occupies French ports promoting an attractive Russian culture in spite of the sanctions adopted following Bucha atrocities. Promting a fiction in perpetual creation, relayed by subjugated media, when they do not add their own fantasy, Vladimir Martus, its captain owner, manages succesfully his commercial activities in our country. He benefits from numerous supports from the local authorities as well as from the French and Russian state apparatus.

Sanctions: letters with IMO about wether russian vessel Shtandart is falling or not within the scope of the relevant international conventions
Under the pressure of a pro-russian lobby, the French governmental agency in charge of controlling the respect of sanctions pretends russian vessel « Shtandart » can bypass EU regulation because it would not be a ship falling within the scope of the relevant international conventions. The question was asked to the International Maritime Organization (IMO).

Vladimir Martus and the “Shtandart” on a mission of diplomatic representation under the auspices and with the financing of Putin, October 2021.
The participation in « The flame of Cesme: The Greek Gambit » mission handled under the auspices of Vladimir Putin’ financed by the Presidential Administration’s Grant Fund via the Russian Geographical Society, headed by Sergei Shoigu, and with Vladimir Putin as Chairman of the Board of Directors, definitively invalidates the parallel reality of Vladimir Martus as an opponent of the Kremlin since 2009, while at the same time sinking the fiction of the Shtandart, Russian “anti-Putin” vessel.
‘Shtandart‘, 2009, Vladimir Martus’ refusal to comply with safety regulations falsely presented as political opposition to Putin’s regime.
The escape from Russia by the Shtandart, in 2009, is the keystone of a toxic narrative ‘justifying’ the violation of European sanctions by this vessel. It is recalled at every public intervention, without being questioned. No one in France has looked into the writings in Russian, including those from the hand of Vladimir Martus, the captain/owner, showing that this dispute has been over since July 2020 and that it was not political, but concerned the safety of the Shtandart’s passengers. It also appears that the dispute could only be resolved with support from the highest level of the Russian government.
