At #UNGA81, @IMOSecGen Arsenio Dominguez had a message for world leaders on the Strait of Hormuz: "Do not use shipping as collateral in geopolitical conflicts, where innocent seafarers do not have a voice and when everyone else in the world will be negatively affected"

I always make time to meet the next generation of #seafarers and maritime professionals. Fresh perspectives and plenty of ideas on the challenges and opportunities that will shape the future of shipping and seafaring.

I condemn the latest Strait of #Hormuz attack on tanker SIDR, which tragically claimed lives of two Filipino seafarers. My thoughts are with their families and loved ones. I remind shipowners and operators that the lives of innocent #seafarers should not be put at risk.

Arrived at SMM in Hamburg, Germany. My answer: when asked how we protect supply chains & critical shipping lanes in an unstable world: the priority is unequivocal: protecting #seafarers. Continuous diplomatic engagement is key to safeguarding those who keep global trade moving.

La igualdad real pasa por la plena participación de las mujeres en el sector marítimo. Ellas están transformando este sector. Fue un placer reunirme con la @RedMAMLa México y conocer el gran trabajo que realizan cada día para hacer una mejor comunidad marítima. #IgualdadDeGénero
