Izvestia: the Russian Embassy in Denmark is trying to evacuate the scientists detained on the ship “Akademik Ioffe” November 4. This became known to Izvestia.
Attempts to free the Russians have not yet been crowned with success, the source of the publication notes. The difficulty lies in the lack of visas for scientists. To get to Russia, they will also have to serve a ten-day quarantine.
The detention of the Russian ship Akademik Ioffe became known on the afternoon of November 4. Onboard there are 38 crew members and 23 researchers. On the same day, the Russian embassy clarified that the claim, on the basis of which the Russian ship was detained in Denmark, was filed by the Canadian company One Ocean Expeditions Ltd. due to his previous activities. What exactly can be discussed is still unknown. According to some reports, the ship “Akademik Ioffe” could have been arrested in Denmark due to a debt to the charterer.
