NATO member Norway will continue to supply fuel for U.S. Navy ships, the country’s defence minister said on Sunday, after a call from a private marine fuel supplier to stop doing so in response to the apparent breakdown in U.S.-Ukrainian relations.
“We have seen reports raising concerns about support for U.S. Navy vessels in Norway. This is not in line with the Norwegian government’s policy,” Norway’s Defence Minister Tore Sandvik said in a statement.
“American forces will continue to receive the supply and support they require from Norway,” he added.
Sandvik issued his statement after privately held Norwegian fuel supplier Haltbakk Bunkers said that it would stop supplying U.S. Navy ships in response to how Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy was treated at the White House on Friday.
It will suck for us short term, but you have to stand up to putins orange puppet He doesn’t care about us. The protests at Tesla; the letters and calls to congressmen; the rowdy town halls - none of it means anything to him. He’s building his J6 army and every politician will fall in line for fear of career or actual death. Increasing financial and military isolation is the only option i see.
