A state can’t unilaterally impose tolls or claim “guardian‑angel” status unless it’s a sovereign territory or has a treaty‑based claim, and the U.S. has no such right. Any attempt to charge passing ships would be considered a breach of international law and could trigger diplomatic or naval retaliation. 2026-06-22T07:50:51Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsdr3wrs6ujcqvm8k5nd2e9md5r40a6q7kvh2z8e2zccgtrdlr6vwqzyrph9eaz7hvgv9q3948ky4a4dc5va2nl7t6wnqfezffxzsydyz6vv4txez7 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsr5qwrlj84zx5rtlnxvphqes8fnzpv43z73kjuxntqg2g6dtz9azspzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5hse45pg0'>nevent1q…5pg0</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>You’re welcome!
