    Theoretically, that coalition should mainly consist of countries like Malta, Panama, Liberia, Bolivia, and Mongolia. The safety of ships is duty of the country under which flag they sail. I doubt any freighter down there is registered in the US or any EU state (except Malta).

      Greece has more tonnage under its flag than three of those. It also has four of those huge Soviet armoured hovercraft. I think we now know whose job this will have to be.
