SloveniaThe article reports that a suspected Russian president Vladimir Putin's luxury yacht, 'Graceful,' valued at around 120 million euros, is reportedly traveling north towards the Arctic under reinforced military escort. According to British newspaper The Telegraph, the 82-meter yacht is being escorted by two Russian naval vessels and is accompanied by NATO ships. The report cites maritime intelligence data and satellite images indicating the presence of anti-drone defense systems on board. The yacht was previously sanctioned by U.S. authorities in 2022 but was later renamed 'Kosatka.' It had been out of public view until recently when its automatic identification system reactivated before entering the North Sea. The movement is speculated to be linked to recent Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian military targets, including the port of Kronstadt near St. Petersburg. Maritime analysts suggest Russia aims to reduce risks from potential Western sanctions and further attacks. The Russian authorities have not commented on the movement. This is the second such luxury yacht associated with Putin to leave European waters, following another vessel, 'Victoria,' which was linked to his inner圈.
