At first, The Department of Homeland Security objected to the P&0/DP World ports deal… BUT
The department's early objections were settled later in the government's review of the $6.8 billion deal after Dubai-owned DP World agreed to a series of security restrictions.
A DP World executive said the company would agree to (additional) security restrictions to win congressional support only if the same restrictions applied to all U.S. port operators.
Exactly!
I would LOVE to see members of the UAE government and DP world, in their robes and head dresses sit in front of a house committee and be accused of damaging national security because they would become the new owners of the port in question.
