The Commission holds the view that the maintenance of a multilateral, market-economy orientated maritime shipping policy remains in the interests of the EC maritime shipping industry and that of shippers, in spite of EC vessels' declining share of the world fleet.
Det er Kommissionens opfattelse, at det stadig tjener både EF­skibs­farten og dens brugeres interesser at bibeholde en multilateral markeds­økonomisk orienteret skibsfartspolitik, trods EF­handelslådens svin­dende tonnage.
