Arsenio Domínguez (Organización Marítima Internacional): “La navegación se hace cada vez más difícil por la falta de seguridad”
El secretario general de la agencia de la ONU critica el exceso de riesgo que asumen algunos armadores en Ormuz y da prioridad a evitar más muertes en el mar
Arsenio Domínguez, secretary general of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), spoke at length about the maritime crisis in the Strait of Ormuz. The thousands of sailors still trapped in the Persian Gulf since the conflict erupted, as well as those who have lost their lives in attacks on ships in the area, are deeply concerned.
Speaking from the IMO headquarters in London, the Panamanian naval architect acknowledged that the organization he oversees is primarily focused on ensuring the safety of crews. He repeatedly emphasized that the only way to guarantee that safety is through a return to normalcy in the recognized UN shipping lane through this narrow strait.
Domínguez warned that alternative routes, whether under Iranian control or US forces off the coast of Oman, are neither reliable nor sustainable for the future.
