This is a sweetheart deal and it stinks. Period. Not much can be done short term. There are no US companies that do such port management operations like DPWorld. Maybe Halliburton will step forward and help out.
Well, maybe xenophobe is a better word for him?
It is not a "sweetheart deal". What rational basis do you have to claim that?
P&O was offered on the open market. Anybody in the world could bid for the company. Two companies actually bothered. DP World outbid the other company. It is clearly paying the "market price" for this company, if it wasn't another company would have outbid them.
I doubt the leases are "sweetheart deals" to begin with. They were bid on the open market, so the price should be fair market value for the rights. DP World will have to now pay that money.
