could you flesh out the details of this hamburg deal for us? roger, you've mentioned that this is a compromise initially. cosco wanted to acquire a $35.00 bits and stake in the operator of germany's biggest container terminal in hamburg. but the chancellor's cabinet has now agreed to a deal on a smaller stake and less than 25 percent. due to a growing concerns over the consequences of such a deal, such as increasing germany's dependency towards china. but also out of security concerns with china, china's agents are present in yet another huge and strategic harbor basing does expand its political and military interests. because costco is a state own company, it buys by beijing's rule, and in doing so, it can very well decide also to ship or not to ship goods. and this reminds us very much of the economy dependency germany self inflicted by striking this was russia for decades before russia's war in ukraine. and these make, it makes it very hard to sanction russia afterwards. so there are fears here, embedding that this could be a repeat. should

and hamburg is up to now in, in a position where we say it is with disadvantage. and this is just a next step to a level playing field. and on the other hand, it guarantees are safeguards a bit more of the access also to chinese markets and imported goods to germany, which are desperately needed right now in times of term was in the supply chains. you're saying a level playing field. others are saying that the chinese are turning on the screws basically on hamburg because boards in and verb reports and rotterdam are so partly owned and costco. good. just go there. so, you know, they're saying basically they're black mailing handbook here for this investment. no, i do say level playing field in terms of the ports you have mentioned because they have already received capital from costco and therefore receiving our safeguarding their access to the chinese markets among better. if we don't think that a minority stake like this, it will lead us to a position where we could be like mailed by china africa this week, sir. meeting of the communist party in china saw leader
