Europe seized vessels of Russian citizens as well as shadow fleet tanker due to sanctions. VZ is sanctioned. What's the diff?

They took a lot of their oil infrastructure from US companies didn't they? Basically, stole it? I'm confused how enforcing these sanctions that have been on the books for a long time means soldiers should disobey valid orders?

> The Centuries isn’t included on sanctions lists from the U.S., U.K., European Union or the United Nations, according to shipping data firm Kpler... The ship was first tracked moving Venezuelan oil to China in April 2020 and was involved in ship-to-ship transfers off Malaysia.
I imagine this is being done for all the wrong reasons but it seems to, in effect, enforce the multilateral sanctions.

I guess if they could bring democracy back to Venezuela and perhaps Cuba it would be something positive from Trump et al.
