Die weltweite Koordinierung der Schifffahrt beginnt in Hochrisikokorridoren zusammenzubrechen. „Fragmentierte Antworten reichen nicht mehr aus“: IMO-Generalsekretär

The International Maritime Organization (IMO) is warning that fragmented responses to rising security risks in key shipping lanes are becoming a structural issue, especially around the Strait of Hormuz.

The core problem is coordination. Responsibility is split between coastal states, naval forces, flag states, and insurers. That works when things are stable, but under stress, gaps start to show.

From what I see working on the water in Vancouver, this doesn’t show up as headlines. It shows up in routing decisions, insurance costs, and how operators price risk in real time.
