Iran has been trying to evade sanctions and continue selling its oil abroad, while the U.S. and its allies have been seizing cargoes since 2019 after the country’s nuclear deal allowing the trade collapsed.
It’s pretty clear I think all sanctions should be ended. All sanctions ever do is hurt the people.
“Solution”. There isn’t a way for us to force Iran to change. That has to come from within. Sanctions don’t do that - siege warfare just forces everyone in Iran to hunker down and endure Western aggression, with the poorest being hurt the worst. The solution is peace.
Literally high seas piracy.
And when Iran retaliates the US media reports that Iran seizes American cargo ships for no reason.
No, this is called letter of Marque, distinct from piracy 🏴☠️
When the government does it, it’s not illegal.
Also if the government allows a private entity to do it, it’s not piracy, it’s privateering.
How else would you suggest to enforce sanctions? Our are people suggestion the US send in troops? Our does the world just support these regimes?
Sanctions are siege warfare.
Thanks for the definition. So what is your solution or does the world just trade with these nations regardless what they do?

So keep trying and keeping those governments in power and wealth. Makes sense.
