While it is impossible to measure the secondary employment and environmental costs, the Danube Commission estimates direct losses to shipping at over 1m euros daily. Shipping businesses and ports in Bulgaria and Romania were the worst hit.
Iako je nemoguće proceniti sporedne gubitke koji se odnose na nezaposlenost i životnu sredinu, Dunavska komisija procenjuje da direktni gubici špedicije iznose oko 1 milion eura dnevno, a transportna preduzeća i luke u Bugarskoj i Rumuniji bili su najteže pogođeni.
