The judicial seizure may be over, but the oil tanker Ethera still cannot leave the port of Zeebrugge. Defense boarded the ship last month.
There are still many technical defects. Moreover, the deposit of ten million euros to the Belgian government has still not been paid. “For example, if parts for repairs to the ship were to come from Russia, we would still have sanctions against Russia,” says Dirk De fauw, vice-chairman of the port of Port of Antwerp Bruges. “Are those documents allowed to be brought on board, are they allowed to be imported?”
