i believe we should read what the coast said after the early release of a section of their report which was very early on and later was resolved. this is coast guard response last night. "The excerpts made public earlier today, when taken out of context, do not reflect the full, classified analysis performed by the Coast Guard. That analysis concludes 'that DP World's acquisition of P&O, in and of itself, does not pose a significant threat to U.S. assets,'?" said Cmdr. Jeff Carter, a Coast Guard spokesman. "Upon subsequent and further review, the Coast Guard and the entire CFIUS panel believed that this transaction, when taking into account strong security assurances by DP World, does not compromise U.S. security," he said
