WW3 Expert: This Could Trigger Global Starvation
What was said
"Iranian tankers have been seized by the Americans and tankers are being seized in the Caribbean as well by the American Navy. Russian tankers, yes, the United States has indeed been seizing tankers linked to Russia. A major escalation occurred earlier this year on January 7th, 2026, when the US military and Coast Guard intercepted two sanctioned Shadow Fleet oil tankers."
Janssen reveals the US military has already begun seizing Russian shadow fleet oil tankers in the Caribbean and North Atlantic as part of Operation Southern Spear, acts he characterizes as undeclared war. He argues this strategic blockade of Russian energy exports is designed to force global dependence on American oil and is already creating the conditions for World War III escalation.
