A Norwegian petrol company has taken a stand against the US military presence in Norway, following President Donald Trump's controversial encounter with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House. Haltbakk Bunkers has reportedly declared an immediate halt to fuel supplies for all American forces in Norway, making its position clear with a resounding "No fuel to Americans!".
The firm took to social media to express its backing for Zelensky and to deliver a significant blow to President Trump after what was described as a fiery exchange broadcast from the Oval Office. Their statement read: "We have today been witnesses to the biggest s***show ever presented 'live on tv' by the current American president and his vice president.
"Huge credit to the president of Ukraine restraining himself and for keeping calm even though USA put on a backstabbing tv show. It made us sick. Short and sweet. As a result, we have decided to immediate STOP as fuel provider to American forces in Norway and their ships calling Norwegian ports.

Re: Norway Bunker Company Sanctions US
Good Question. Like most I note its from MSN homepage. Note sure who picked up on it first, but Pravda online outlets have run with it, however
https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/20 ... source=nba seems to be one of the earliest puts better info into it with the note that Russia was already sanctioned (by Norway itself and company thus following?).

Re: Norway Bunker Company Sanctions US
Its hit YT commentators now so fairly widespread
Norwegian Defense Minister Tore Sandvik stated that the country continues to provide the US military fleet with full support and supplies. The official's remarks came in response to the refusal of the Norwegian company Haltbakk Bunkers to refuel American warships, according to the Norwegian Ministry of Defense's Twitter (X) account.
In the Norwegian Ministry of Defense, during the night before March 2, a statement by Sandvik regarding reports about naval support was released.
"We have seen reports raising concerns about support for US Navy vessels in Norway," the head of the Ministry of Defense said.
He noted that this is not in line with the Norwegian government’s policy.
"I can confirm that all requested support has been provided. The US and Norway maintain a close and strong defense cooperation. American forces will continue to receive the supply and support they require from Norway," Sandvik's statement read.
