A strong statement at the 57th Captain’s Day in Bremen

BREMEN. Around 300 captains, members of the maritime industry and politicians met up at the 57th Captain’s Day in Bremen. Bremen’s Senator for Economic Affairs, Ports and Transformation, Kristina Vogt, her counterpart for Lower Saxony and this year’s keynote speaker, Olaf Lies, the port captain and head of the Port Authority Bremen, Stephan Berger, and Christoph Bruns, member of the executive board of BHV – Bremische Hafen- und Logistikvertretung, took the opportunity during the event to remind the government of its responsibility regarding port financing. They all made it quite clear: “As a result of their core role, the ports are not only of national importance for the trading of goods but also as energy hubs, their preservation and expansion are also a national task.” The traditional event that dates back to 1965 and honours the captains and chief engineers of ships and aircraft was hosted by BHV on behalf of the Bremen Senate in Bremen’s City Hall.
