Oil Shippers Avoid Nayara Energy Due to EU Sanctions
Imagine a big oil company in India called Nayara.
The EU, a group of countries, has put sanctions on them, meaning other companies are now wary of doing business with them.
Two oil tankers changed their plans, and others might follow.
Nayara is asking for money upfront, which is unusual and making people nervous.
This is because of the sanctions.
The owner of Nayara, Rosneft, doesn't think the sanctions are fair.
Shipowners and oil traders are avoiding Nayara Energy after EU sanctions.
An oil tanker, Talara, diverted from Vadinar port after the sanctions.
Another tanker, Chang Hang Xing Yun, halted its journey to Vadinar.
Nayara is seeking advance payments or letters of credit before fuel shipments.
Rosneft has called the EU sanctions "unjustified and illegal."
