Merchant Shipping

Nowadays, merchant shipping is facing a new challenge in the context of COVID-19. The ships at sea may find themselves in need of immediate medical assistance relating to the crewmembers and/or passengers due to COVID-19. Besides, there is a problem with the change of ship crews in due time and their repatriation. Under international custom, coastal States keep their ports open for merchant shipping but may require the ship’s master to take appropriate action to prevent a threat of danger. In cases of failure or urgency, the coastal State can exercise its authority in taking responsive action appropriate to the threat. The article analyzes the main issue - how reasonable are the actions of states that close their ports to foreign vessels in the light of COVID-19. In this paper, the practice of foreign and Russian ports in the context of the COVID-19 is assessed.

Main Issue

This chapter turns to a general theory which generalizes and unifies all of the examples in the preceding chapters. A main issue is that the first definition from the trichotomy does not generalize to the multi-parameter situation. To deal with this, strengthened cancellation conditions are introduced. This is done in two different ways, resulting in four total definitions for singular integral operators (the first two use the strengthened cancellation conditions, while the later two are generalizations of the later two parts of the trichotomy). Thus, we obtain four classes of singular integral operators, denoted by A1, A2, A3, and A4. The main theorem of the chapter is A1 = A2 = A3 = A4; i.e., all four of these definitions are equivalent. This leads to many nice properties of these singular integral operators.

Based on the analysis of citizens’ claims against medical organizations, as well as on the basis of the analysis of the courts’ consideration of such claims, significant differences were found in the amount of compensation for non-pecuniary damage under various conditions related to both the condition of the victim of medical assistance rendered with defects and on the number of patients. It was shown that it is necessary to further accumulate material in order to obtain a more objective picture of satisfied claims and unification in the Russian Federation. Similar calculations can be carried out for other situations related to the possibility of causing moral harm, for example, disseminating information defaming the honor and dignity of a citizen, or compensating moral harm caused by unlawful actions of a law enforcement officer during criminal proceedings. Using the established average values, the court can, on the basis of established factual circumstances, calculate the amount of compensation for non-pecuniary damage in a particular case.
