      Nah, I am afraid sinking such a ship is bad for the fish and so … secondary sanctions for India and Indian companies would be a better solution and supposedly more effective.

          Obliterating ecosystems that provide necessary food to human beings, while we’re (not meaningfully) dealing with other anthropogenic collapses of the aquatic biosphere is not really a good choice. A better alternative would be to seize the vessel and its cargo to sell for reparations for Putin’s war.
