"It would very much disrupt the scenario we have today, and it would raise numerous questions and create new challenges.

Mr Jenson concluded: “With APL out of the G6 alliance, we're now looking at G5. And if OOCL also walks out, it'll be G4. This puts Hapag-Lloyd, in particular, in a wholly new and unclear situation."
