The international criminal court will have something to say about this.
The Hague is going to be busy once Orange Adolf is out of power. A lot of folks "just folling orders" will be going to prison along with Trump admin officials.

This was all announced when the first tanker was taken. The US knows which ones are pirate breaking sanctions tankers.

I can't imagine why so many Ukraine fans are upset over this. These tankers were breaking sanctions, Biden was too afraid of blowback to stop them.
