Putin's been linked to 5 superyachts..
I wonder how many Russians realize the breadth of his theft.
- Didn't hear about Nega. I only knew about rest 4.
  
  when you can’t keep track of the number of super yachts, the exact number probably doesn’t matter any more
Can you even arrest a yacht? Surely they meant to say confiscated...
The title is probably just a bad translation because the site is NewsInFrance.com. I know its a big responsibly OP but maybe see if the title makes sense before copying it for your post.
- Yes. A ship can be arrested. Just remember that maritime language can be quite different.

  Any asset can be arrested or whatever it called. Frozen?
  Basically it isn't confiscated becase it is not becoming property of Italy, but original owner can't do anything with it.
- This article is gibberish. Terrible translation.
Should be dismantled and sold for scrap.
- And the funds used for support of Ukrainian refugees and Italian homeless.
- Use it as a Q-ship to attack a Russian port somewhere under the guise of returning it.
Into space?
- I wish
Be a darn shame if an errant torpedo hit it.
- Can errant rocket hit his bunker?
At first I thought title should be exactly like in source.
