attacking merchant ships. and as mentioned ships, randy remains to be seen. but it would be a huge escalation in terms of action taken by restaurant. it should also be remembered ukraine followed with a similar message about the traffic in the northeast and black sea. we would condemn in the strongest terms, anything that threatens the safety of navigation and the safety of all c fires. conducting deb i to business to what do you make of what you're here? we're hearing out of nato. nato was saying is gonna step up surveillance of the black sea region with patrol aircraft with drones. of course, there's talk about even using nato's ships for as, as course, although that seems unlikely. does any of that change to sort of the calculus that shippers are making when they're looking at the security threats and the dangers to them and the blacks the well, the nights are shipping cents a is

a very trusted partner and security for the shipping industry. it provides us with a huge amount of risk data, not just for the black sable, for, for all of the regions in which nato is present in terms of stepping up the present . so i think it's worth remembering that there is no nighttime mission in this region. there are nights are states involved, but any information we get from them will help in reassuring merchant shipping. it's too safe to go about his business. and obviously ukraine has opened to colorado, but the present time. nobody has access to it for, for a number of reasons. which i'm sure will get onto. but any, any data we get on this threat profile, be that from mine's be that from kinetic action. be that from strides against bolts, but will be incredibly useful to shipping operating in the effect of diarrhea. let's turn though for a moment to alternative routes. what do you make of them or talk here and what the
