  • L'IRU demande la revitalisation d'urgence du transport ferroviaire
    Jusqu'ici, le message de l'Union internationale des Transports Routiers (IRU) était que le rail et la route étaient complémentaires. Aujourd'hui, la délégation de l'IRU à Bruxelles lance un pressant appel à la veille du Conseil européen des Ministres du Transport: libéralisez le rail afin qu'il devienne davantage compétitif et qualitatif. "La libéralisation du rail est une nécessité: sans libéralisation, le rail va disparaître du transport de marchandises en Europe", a déclaré Maarten Labberton, délégué général de l'IRU auprès de l'UE au cours d'une conférence de presse. En lisant entre les lignes, c'est un cri d'alarme pour revitaliser le rail, car sinon l'effondrement de la mobilité sera total.
  • Evergreen entend renforcer sa présence en Europe

    La communauté maritime et portuaire anversoise, donc le secteur privé, procédera en date du 1er janvier prochain à une adaptation de certains tarifs de manutention que l'on peut qualifier de très modestes compte tenu de certains aspects inhérents aux coûts d'exploitation.
  • Les armateurs allemands accusent les Pays-Bas de concurrence déloyale
    "Nous ne sommes pas contre la concurrence, mais les règles doivent être identiques pour tout le monde", déclare l'administrateur délégué du Verband Deutsche Reeder, Bernd Kröger, dans une interview à Die Welt. Il met en cause le gouvernement néerlandais. Sa politique favoriserait les entreprises maritimes néerlandaises au détriment des étrangères.
