US seize oil tanker in latest show of strength from Trump

US forces have seized a sanctioned oil tanker in the Atlantic. Dramatic photos showed a helicopter hovering beside the tanker, now sailing under the Russian flag, which was last believed to be operating between Scotland and Iceland. It is not currently carrying oil but has a long history of transporting sanctioned Venezuelan crude and has been under sustained US surveillance for weeks. Joining Shelagh Fogarty in the LBC studio, Lewis Goodall explains how this fits against the backdrop of US adventurism in Venezuela, and insreasingly likely, Greenland.
