@rvps2001 duplicate post but #hoho #pirate #privateer #Ukraine #russia I was going to tongue in cheek suggest reviving https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_of_marque. But was surprised to discover it had been considered in 2000 and 2007 by the USA.

Seizing the ship and the cargo would be a very effective way of stopping the trade.
