Everything is not only about money, tonnage and ship size.
In this case, it is. If something isn't viable, then it isn't viable. Remember, Communism ended over 20 years ago.
There are people who know the price of everything but the vaklue of nothing!
I fail to see the value in a hugely expensive vanity project that would also result in the destruction of a Natura 2000 area. Those of us who know a thing or two about the environment (especially the beauty around Krynica) know better than to build such vanity projects there.
That's where PiS stands head and shoulders above all the tin-horn politicians, shady buisness types and their brainwashed toadies, becasue the welfare of the good people of Elbląg in this case comes first and foremost.
You mean that buying off the people of Elblag is more important than our environment?
Elbląg was a normally functioning seaport with a maritime-oriented citizenry until the Russiasn started pulling their fast ones.
You mean it was a seaport in previous times. Can you explain why Poland economically needs Elblag to exist as a port, and why 260 million Euro (and destroying the environment) is better spent there than in Swinjouscie?
An additional wndow on the Baltic would allow the city to thrive once again and with it the entire surronding area.
Except it wouldn't. Time is money, and the additional time spent having to get into Elblag versus being able to unload in Gdansk/Gdynia would make it unworthwhile. Destroying the Krynica area would also guarantee economic harm, not benefits.
Tell us Polonius - what would be the maximum draft size that Elblag could accommodate?
Isn't it strange how Jaroslaw Kaczynski has mentioned very little about the subject since then?
