NYK holds back from Red Sea as president Soga warns security ‘far from ideal’
- NYK is in no hurry to return to the Red Sea, with the Gaza ceasefire still highly fragile
- President Soga said he hopes talks between Israel, the Houthis and even Iran can deliver a lasting settlement
- Key carriers are planning a return via the Suez Canal, but war risk premiums remain high
NYK is keeping its fleet out of the Red Sea, judging that fragile geopolitics and navigational safety still outweigh the lure of shorter routes and lower costs
