The company is based in Los Angeles you knob

No. A LA based private equity company technically owned the boat at the time of transfer (they do not own it anymore, it's been sold to the Greek company). That US based company is seemingly off Scott free in this situation and the Greek company is the one being fined and sanctioned.

AT THE TIME OF THE TRANSFER

Watch as he desperately reaches for straws!!

You literally said this yourself and then ignore that you did lmfao.

US jurisdiction, just cause they tried musical chairs or whatever is just nonsense of them trying to pull some shit. Case closed sis.

So instead of putting the US capital investors in prison and seizing the assets of the equity firm, they seize the oil and fuck the greek company.

That is judiciary colonialism

Colonialism is defined here as "things I don't like"

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
