Yep, Trump made anything the US says or does a clown show. Not sure the US will ever recover from the damage Trump did.

The purpose of this framework would be to facilitate the ​safe evacuation of merchant ships," it said. "This measure aims to ​protect the lives of seafarers."

Masquerading the safety of the seafarers to force the delivery of merchandise.

You want to save them? Bring them ashore and get them food and shelter until this shit is over. Or get them home.

Leave the ships.
