Looks like the Russians are pursuing the pirates too, in the spirit of international cooperation...or maybe just because it was their schwag that got taken.
But according to diplomats and the Russian Interfax news agency, the cargo was 33 T-72 refurbished tanks, "quite a significant amount of ammunition" and grenade launchers. The supplier was a state-owned Ukrainian company. Ukrainian and Kenyan officials emphasized that the arms deal was perfectly legal.To be fair, three of the crewman were Russian, and I'm sure that the Russians were offended...After all, no one gets to steal and threaten the citizens and businesses of their former republics but them.
