Djibouti ready to pay DP World compensation

Djibouti would be prepared to pay DP World compensation of “more or less half a billion dollars . . . as early as next week” to settle a dispute over control of the city’s Doraleh container terminal.

In an interview with the Financial Times, Aboubaker Omar Hadi, chairman of Djibouti Ports & Free Zones authority, rejected talk of arbitration to settle a long-running dispute over the most modern port in east Africa, saying that DP World had to accept it was no longer involved in running the facility.
