US budgetaftale redder skibsprogram

Rederier der stiller skibe til rådighed for det amerikanske forvar - bl.a. A.P. Møller - Mærsks amerikanske datterselskab Maersk Line Limited - kan ånde lettet op efter den aftale der torsdag aften sendte den amerikanske budgetstrid til hjørnespark.

En af de bevillinger der torsdag aften røg gennem Kongressen i lyntempo omhandlede 186 millioner dollar til the Maritime Security Program / MSP, der sikrer 60 skibe under amerikansk flag en årlig betaling på 3 millioner dollar, for at stå til rådighed for det amerikanske forsvar med meget kort varsel. Bladt de største deltagere i programmet er Maersk Line Limited, der dermed er sikret fortsat løbende betaling fra det amerikanske forsvar.

Den amerikanske budgetstrid, der i 16 dage lammede dele af den offentlige sektor, ramte også den maritime del af USA. US Coast Guard indstillede bl.a. udstedelsen af sømandsbeviser, mens the US Merchant Marine Academy lukkede helt ned.

Budgetstriden er dog ikke endt, blot midlertidigt løst, idet politikerne kun er blevet enige om at hæve gældsloftet og forlænge budgettet.
