Rotterdam still keen on cooperation with Zeeland

Zeeland Seaports and the Port of Rotterdam Authority have been cited as reasons for the lacklustre past relations. Hans Smits, chief executive of the  port authority, said: It is to our advantage to remain involved in  developments in Zeeland. If Zeeland and Rotterdam can exploit the port of Vlissingen to the full, we can achieve a unique position for the Netherlands in the container market along the Schelde estuary.
