The British Gibraltar Autonomous Government released the Iranian tanker that was captured last month on the 15th against the EU-European sanctions. As tensions continue over the situation in Iran, it will be noticed that the release of tankers will lead to a step toward the breakthrough.
British Autonomous Government of Gibraltar captured an Iranian tanker in the Strait of Gibraltar last month trying to transport crude oil to Syria against EU = European sanctions. It was revealed that this tanker would be released.
As for the reason for liberation, the self-government government says that the Iranian side has confirmed that the tanker will not go to the countries that are subject to EU sanctions.
Furthermore, the statement did not accept the request that the US government, which continues to put pressure on Iran, demanded not to release the tanker just before the decision, saying that it was an independent organization to judge.
Between Iran and the UK, after this tanker was seized, the Iranian side also seized an English-registered tanker in the Persian Gulf.
