- ceejayoz 4mo agoSeize a few shadow fleet tankers to pay for it. (This is already happening, today, for other bits of their misbehavior!)
- nradov 4mo agoI'm not opposed to seizing shadow fleet vessels operated by Russia (or any vessel sailing without a valid flag registration). But as a practical matter Russia is now legally registering much of the shadow fleet under their own flag, and even giving them armed escorts in some cases. So this is going to make additional seizures more difficult.
