The New German Sea Rule
The United States will likely protest Germany over a new order declaring conditional contraband cargos bound for neutrals shall be confiscated. It expands the list of contraband and allows orders to confiscate cargoes “to order” even for neutrals. Germany cannot enforce it against U S vessels now, but the move invades neutral rights like Britain’s order.
