Helping to ensure the security of the maritime shipping networks that continue to dominate global trade and the vast resources of emerging EEZs from asymmetric challenges arguably became many navies’ primary raison d’être.

Since Berlin, Paris, Brussels and others have long had a bias against Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, it has been possible to reach a spontaneous verdict on this new affront without any acknowledgement of the actual facts of the situation. Once again, “someone” did not want to adhere to the principles of rules-bound foreign policy and simply acted, failing beforehand to convene an international conference involving all stakeholders, that could draw on the expertise of as many non-governmental organisations as possible! Such a thing is unacceptable, such a thing is un-European, such a country does not belong in the EU, and such a NATO Member State should, if possible, even be expelled from the Alliance, according to some of the particularly agitated critics. Regardless of how many good reasons there might be to denounce Turkey’s intervention, there are two aspects to consider. First, the so-called people's defence militia, the YPG, against which the attack was directed, are not exactly famous in the region as angels of innocence: they are the Syrian sister organisation of the Turkey-based Kurdish PKK Workers Party, which is classified as a terrorist organisation throughout the EU.

She was the last in a series of 5 vessels built in France for Compagnie Nationale Algerienne De Navigation. Throughout their trading life, they have ensured the export of Algerian natural gas from Arzew and Skikda ports to the clients of Sonatrach, the Algerian national oil and gas company. Montoir (France), le 14 March 2008. © Erwan Guéguéniat The 5 LNG tankers were all named after heroes of the Algerian war of independence. The Mostefa Ben Boulaïd, Larbi Ben M'hidi and Bachir Chihani built by Constructions navales et industrielles de la Méditerranée in La Seyne-sur-Mer were scrapped in Turkey in 2017 and 2018 (see "Shipbreaking" # 44, p 31 and # °48, p. 32-33), the Mourad Didouche built in Saint-Nazaire was deflagged, renamed Mourato and beached in Bangladesh in February 2019 (see "Shipbreaking" # 55 p. 41). The Ramdane Abane, the last of the series, is also the last to be scrapped.

Robin des Bois counted 293 vessels sold for demolition in 2006, 288 in 2007 and 456 in 2008. In 2009, 1,006 vessels have left the waters, representing more than twice the 2008 total and three times the 2006 total. The total weight of recycled metal reached more than 8.2 million tons, five times the total amount of 2006. During this record year the pace of vessels leaving the oceans during the summer months has barely slowed down. The worldwide financial crisis weighed considerably on trade exchange; big ship owners have massively sent for demolition their oldest ships to adapt to the dropping of freight rates and to draw benefits from their recent ships.
