ドミニカ船籍のタンカー@北朝鮮石油密輸

1月22日 17時39分

東シナ海の公海上で２０日、北朝鮮籍のタンカーと外国の船舶が横付けになる形で並んでいるのを海上自衛隊が確認したことが防衛省関係者への取材でわかりました。防衛省は、北朝鮮への輸出が制限されている石油精製品などが提供された可能性があるとしてアメリカ軍に連絡したということです。

防衛省関係者によりますと、２０日の早朝、東シナ海の公海上で、北朝鮮籍のタンカーとドミニカ船籍のタンカーが横付けになる形で並んでいるのを海上自衛隊のＰ３Ｃ哨戒機が確認しました。

北朝鮮籍のタンカーは、国連の制裁対象のリストに挙げられている船と見られ、その後、ドミニカ船籍のタンカーと離れて朝鮮半島方面に向かったということです。

核・ミサイル開発を進める北朝鮮に対しては、先月、国連の安全保障理事会で石油精製品の大幅な輸出制限を盛り込んだ制裁決議が採択されていますが、防衛省は今回、北朝鮮側に石油精製品などが提供された可能性があるとして、現場を撮影してアメリカ軍に連絡したということです。

北朝鮮籍の船舶をめぐっては、去年１０月、香港船籍の船舶が北朝鮮の船舶に対して石油精製品およそ６００トンを提供したことが確認されたと、韓国政府が明らかにしています。

Oil tankers carrying Dominica’s flag under investigation for Iran busting sanctions

Just days after the arrest of Alireza Monfared by Iranian authorities on embezzlement charges surrounding the siphoning of funds from the illegal sale of oil to Iran, prime minister Roosevelt Skerrit accompanied by Lennox Lawrence made a hasty trip to Greece.
Lawrence is Dominica’s non-resident ambassador to Greece and also the man responsible for registering vessels under the country’s flag of convenience protocol. Most of the vessels are registered in Greece but carry the Dominica flag.

In June 2015 a concerned citizen made available to TDN a list of 11 tankers of the ‘Ocean Tankers’ group registered by Dominica but stationed next door to Malaysia in the country of Singapore.

Of significance is the fact that Monfared operated out of Malaysia using the My Dominica Trade House and another company registered simply as ‘Dominica 1’.

When the list of Dominica registered tankers was received the concern revolved around the fact that the tankers were typically around 20 years of age, and all at least were recently purchased second hand.

The vessels along with their International Maritime organization numbers are Ocean Concord (9052874), Ocean Emerald (9002207), Ocean Gurnard (9123881), Ocean Kite (9129201), Ocean Manta (9123867), Ocean Marlin (9126895), Ocean Moray (9123870) Ocean Osprey (9150652), Ocean Princess (8601496), Ocean Seal (9113094) and Ocean Swift (9129213).

TDN have also been reliably informed that US authorities are investigating the role that these vessels may have played in usurping Iranian sanctions, which did not allow the shipment of goods and especially oil from Iran.

Prime minister Skerrit remains in Greece where in a 1 A.M broadcast from Greece to the people of Dominica he denied recent media reports that a criminal investigation had been launched against him by US authorities.

Meanwhile Opposition Leader in the Dominica parliament Lennox Linton has called on the prime minister to give the people of Dominica the specific reasons for his vist to Greece at this time.
