NS Concord
MV ''NS Concord'' is Russian owned, Liberian-flagged oil tanker that gained notoriety in 2014 after it was allegedly connected to the submarine search in the Stockholm archipelago.〔('Russian submarine spotted' by Swedish military off coast of Stockholm ), ''The Independent'', October 20, 2014.〕 The oil tanker arrived in the area on October 4 but was later charted as zigzagging across the seas, as if searching for something.〔(Sweden hunts damaged Russian sub: report ), The Local, October 18, 2014.〕 The vessel "could be a mothership for a possible submarine," according to Stefan Ring, an expert on military strategies at The Swedish National Defence College. "It is possible to use a ship like this as a mothership for mini submarines. Sailing under another flag could be to hide what they really are doing," Ring said.〔(Suspected foreign underwater activity ), ''Expressen'', October 19, 2014.〕 However, Anders Nordin at the Swedish Coastguard told news agency TT that the ''NS Concord's'' movements were consistent with normal tanker movements.〔(No let-up in search for foreign vessel ), The Local, October 20, 2014.〕 ''NS Concord'' belongs to the Russian shipping company SCF Novoship, based in Novorossiysk on the Black Sea. The company is in turn part of the state-owned OAO Sovcomflot, one of the world's largest oil transport companies, whose CEO, Sergei Frank, is a close confident of Russian President Vladimir Putin.〔(Sweden hunts for suspected Russian submarine in Cold War-style drama ), The Daily Telegraph, October 19, 2014.〕 ==References==
