US launches high-stakes operation to seize Venezuela-linked oil tanker after Atlantic pursuit-here's what this means for Russia and global oil

America is trying to seize a oil tanker linked to Venezuela. The vessel has been tracked across the Atlantic for two weeks. It was previously sanctioned for transporting illicit oil. The tanker evaded US forces near Venezuela last month. This operation could increase tensions with Russia. The tanker is now sailing under a Russian flag.
