Without Firing a Shot… US Just CUT OFF What Keeps Russia's War Alive

Описание: US SEIZES RUSSIA'S OIL TANKER, SIGNS NUCLEAR DEAL WITH ARMENIA—ALL IN 24 HOURS.

On February 9th, U.S. troops fast-roped onto a Russian-linked shadow tanker in the Indian Ocean after a 10,000-mile chase. Hours later, Vice President JD Vance landed in Yerevan and signed a $9 billion nuclear deal, pulling one of Moscow’s oldest allies into Washington’s orbit. No missiles were fired. No borders were crossed. But Putin’s war machine just lost money and influence it can never get back.

This report breaks down:
• The Shadow Fleet Hunt: How the U.S. tracked and seized the Aquila II—carrying 700,000 barrels of oil—proving Russia’s sanction-evasion network is now vulnerable worldwide.
• The Armenian Pivot: Why a country that was 93% pro-Russian in 2019 just chose the U.S., suspending its CSTO membership and opening the door to American-built nuclear reactors.
• The Frontline Impact: How collapsing oil revenue leads to abandoned Russian soldiers—like the 18 found starving in a Donetsk basement, surrendered after being cut off for four months.
• The Numbers: Russia’s oil revenue fell 24% in 2025, with Ukrainian drone strikes knocking 40% of refining capacity offline. Shadow fleet seizures could cut exports by 20%.

Defense Secretary Hegseth’s warning was clear: “You will run out of fuel long before you will outrun US.”

While Russia’s soldiers are left without supplies, its money is being intercepted and its alliances are unraveling—all without a single shot fired.
