Navios e helicópteros da OTAN perseguem 7 piratas

NAIROBI, Kenya - NATO warships and helicopters pursued Somali pirates for seven hours after they attacked a Norwegian tanker, NATO spokesmen said Sunday, and the highspeed chase only ended when warning shots were fired at the piratesl skiff.

NAIROBI, Quénia - Navios de guerra e helicópteros da OTAN perseguiram piratas somalis durante sete horas depois de estes terem atacado um navio-tanque norueguês, disseram porta-vozes da OTAN no domingo, e a perseguição a alta velocidade só terminou quando foram disparados tiros de aviso contra o barco dos piratas.

Seven pirates attempted to attack the Norwegian-flagged MV Front Ardenne late Saturday but fled after crew took evasive maneuvers and alerted warships in the area, said Portuguese Lt. Cmdr. Alexandre Santos Fernandes, aboard a warship in the Gulf of Aden, and Cmdr. Chris Davies, of NATais maritime headquarters in England.
Sete piratas tentaram atacar o MV Front Ardenne, de bandeira norueguesa, no final do sábado, mas fugiram depois de a tripulação ter efectuado manobras evasivas e alertado os navios de guerra na zona, disseram o tenente-coronel português Alexandre Santos Fernandes, a bordo de um navio de guerra no Golfo de Aden, e o comandante Chris Davies, do quartel-general marítimo da OTAN na Inglaterra.
"How the attack was thwarted is unclear, it appears to have been the actions of the tanker," Davies said. Fernandes said no shots were fired at the tanker.
"A forma como o ataque foi impedido não é clara, mas parece ter sido a ação do camião-cisterna", disse Davies. Fernandes disse que não foram disparados tiros contra o petroleiro.
Davies said the pirates sailed into the path of the Canadian warship Winnipeg, which was escorting a World Food Program delivery ship through the Gulf of Aden. The American ship USS Halyburton was also in the area and joined the chase.
Davies disse que os piratas navegaram na direção do navio de guerra canadiano Winnipeg, que escoltava um navio de entrega do Programa Alimentar Mundial no Golfo de Aden. O navio americano USS Halyburton também estava na área e juntou-se à perseguição.
"There was a lengthy pursuit, over said. The pirates hurled weapons into Canadian and U.S. warships closed in. NATais anti-piracy mission.
"Houve uma longa perseguição, disse Over. Os piratas atiraram armas contra navios de guerra canadianos e americanos que se aproximavam. Missão anti-pirataria da OTAN.
"The skiff abandoned the scene and tried to escape to Somali territory," Fernandes said. "It was heading toward Bossaso but we managed to track them. Warning shots have been made after several attempts to stop the vessel."
"O barco abandonou o local e tentou fugir para território somali", disse Fernandes. "Dirigia-se para Bossaso, mas conseguimos localizá-la. Foram feitos disparos de aviso após várias tentativas de parar a embarcação."
Both ships deployed helicopters, and naval officers hailed the pirates over loudspeakers and finally fired warning shots to stop them, Fernandes said, but not before the pirates had dumped most of their weapons overboard.

Ambos os navios enviaram helicópteros e os oficiais da Marinha saudaram os piratas através de altifalantes e finalmente dispararam tiros de aviso para os deter, disse Fernandes, mas não antes de os piratas terem deitado ao mar a maior parte das suas armas.

NATO forces boarded the skiff, where they found a rocketpropelled grenade, and interrogated, disarmed and released the pirates.
As forças da OTAN entraram a bordo do barco, onde encontraram uma granada de foguete, e interrogaram, desarmaram e libertaram os piratas.
The pirates cannot be prosecuted under Canadian law because they did not attack Canadian citizens or interests and the crime was not committed on Canadian territory.
Os piratas não podem ser processados pela lei canadense porque não atacaram cidadãos ou interesses canadenses e o crime não foi cometido em território canadense.
"When a ship is part of NATO, the detention of a person is a matter for the national authorities," Fernandes said. "It stops being a NATO issue and starts being a national issue."
“Quando um navio faz parte da OTAN, a detenção de uma pessoa é da competência das autoridades nacionais”, disse Fernandes. "Deixa de ser uma questão da OTAN e passa a ser uma questão nacional."
The pirates' release underscores the difficulties navies have in fighting rampant piracy off the coast of lawless Somalia. Most of the time, foreign navies simply disarm and release the pirates they catch due to legal complications and logistical difficulties in transporting pirates and witnesses to court.
A libertação dos piratas sublinha as dificuldades que as marinhas têm em combater a pirataria desenfreada ao largo da costa da Somália sem lei. Na maior parte das vezes, as marinhas estrangeiras limitam-se a desarmar e a libertar os piratas que capturam devido a complicações legais e a dificuldades logísticas no transporte dos piratas e das testemunhas para o tribunal.
Pirates have attacked more than 80 boats this year alone, four times the number assaulted in 2003, according to the Kuala Lumpur-based International Maritime Bureau. They now hold at least 18 ships - including a Belgian tanker seized Saturday with 10 crew aboard - and over 310 crew hostage, according to an Associated Press count.

Só este ano, os piratas atacaram mais de 80 embarcações, quatro vezes mais do que em 2003, segundo o Gabinete Marítimo Internacional, com sede em Kuala Lumpur. Atualmente, mantêm reféns pelo menos 18 navios - incluindo um petroleiro belga apreendido no sábado com 10 tripulantes a bordo - e mais de 310 tripulantes, de acordo com uma contagem da Associated Press.
