SENATOR SCHUMER HOLD MEDIA AVAILABILITY ON DUBAI PORTS WORLD DEAL

FEBRUARY 28, 2006

SPEAKER: U.S. SENATOR CHARLES SCHUMER (D-NY)

[*] SCHUMER: Thank you.

The more you look at this Dubai Ports World acquisition and CFIUS' role in it, the secretive committee that approved the deal, the more questions that come up.

The latest, of course, is the report that the Coast Guard, when they did a preliminary security view, said we have no way to know how secure Dubai Ports World is. And then all of a sudden the powers that be in the Coast Guard said, "Well, no, no, no, that report doesn't really count. We've gone over things again."
