I read an article a while back about regulating commercial nuclear ships. Would individual countries including the US accept international law to regulate these ships in ports. If I can find the article I will post it. Ships fly flags that are most convenient to them. Liberia and Panama are the two most common flags to avoid taxes. Would that mean regulation as well?
