The belle of the ball on last night’s talk shows here at home: The Suez Canal Authority’s preliminary agreement with the Ever Given’s owner and ins. company over compensation demands for the container ship’s six-day blockage of the canal in March. SCA’ boss Osama Rabie dropped into Masaa DMC last night to discuss the compensation case, telling Ramy Radwan that both sides could reach a binding agreement by mid-next week (watch, runtime: 7:34). Rabie didn’t disclose the amount of compensation the two sides agreed to yesterday.
