Europe's coal imports hammered by Transnet strike

The price of importing coal to Europe’s largest ports rose the most since May as a strike in South Africa curtails shipments of the fuel during the middle of an energy crisis.

The action by Transnet SOC Ltd. employees is “lasting longer than anticipated and has started to take a serious toll on exports,” said Alex Claude, chief executive officer of DBX Commodities in London.

Importing to another country or continent is called Exporting.

It's the price if importing coal in Europe that's gone up, not the price of exporting it

Oh no, send it to Eskom.

If this was written from Europe's point of view its correct. Most likely just a regurgitated article from there.

They ask for another gun, so they can shoot both feet.

Oh no, send it to Eskom.

Will they know what it is for?

I like how the union leadership are accusing Transnet of not being responsible and reasonable. As though it is responsible and reasonable to be crippling South Africa's exports when the country is already in dire straits.

So much for their Green Agenda

I doubt they've ever claimed they plan to end the use of coal overnight.
