Seize the ship and sell it to cover the cost of repair.
Seizing a ship in international waters is a bad move. A better idea; block the docking of all Chinese ships at NATO country ports across the world until the cost of repairs are paid. Payment would arrive in about 5 minutes because the cost of of all Chinese flagged cargo ships idling outside ports for any length of time would be far far FAR more expensive.
I agree, but replace China with Russia.
I'm down with that.
And trebucheting the captain back over the border with Russia.
Better to sue the shipping company into oblivion
Why not both? /meme
Why not Zoidberg?
The shipping company only has 2 ships. source
Fuck it then. Seize their ships when they're in port. Assuming that they're not some shadow puppet company for a bigger company, you've halved their possible business.
I didn't dig very deep, but they may only be used in Russian and Chinese ports. This seems like a good way to insulate a larger company that does use NATO friendly ports. Create a new company, put two ships in it, and do risky shit in Russian and Chinese ports. If the company gets sanctioned the big company is protected.
