Georgia (the one in the Caucasus in Eastern Europe, not the one in the American south) knows a bit about what's going on now in Ukraine, having been forcibly annexed by the Soviet Union in 1922 until that blew apart around 1990. So it's no surprise when this Georgian oil tanker refused to refuel a Russian ship recently.

Voice Of America reporter Fatima Tils posted a video showing a Georgian oil tanker refusing to help refuel Russian ships.
