Russia accuses Greenpeace of encouraging Senegal to seize trawler 
By John Vidal UK Source: theguardian 1/9/2014

Russia has renewed hostilities with Greenpeace after the release of the protesters known as the Arctic 30, accusing the environmental organisation of being behind the seizure of one of its trawlers in Senegalese waters.

The trawler, the Russian-owned factory ship Oleg Naydenov, which regularly fishes off the west African coast, was boarded by armed Senegalese commandos near the maritime border with Guinea-Bissau last week and escorted back to the port of Dakar.
 

The Senegalese government has reportedly demanded €1.5m (£1.2m) in fines for its alleged illegal fishing in the exclusive 12-mile fishing zone on 23 December.
The ship's seizure has provoked a diplomatic row with the Russian government, which suggested Greenpeace had orchestrated the seizure of the trawler in retaliation for Russia's detention of the Greenpeace ship Arctic Sunrise in October 2013, following its activists' protest against Gazprom's oil drilling in the Arctic.
