====== Barbados ====== The Galaxy, the Liberty and the Rigel, all of which moved barrels for Moscow this year, have switched to sail under the flag of Barbados, one of the world’s more-reputable vessel-registration nations, industry data show. The Barbados Maritime Ship Registry is based at the country’s High Commission in London, which has diplomatic immunity.((https://archive.ph/gN7gE#selection-583.0-595.303)) To get a Barbadian flag is good news for the three tankers.
