Greek Shipping Prospects

Adressing the a “Blue Water Economy” Conference, Deputy Foreign Minister Petros Doukas gave a brief presentation of the world’s shipping prospects from which Greece can benefit a great deal. Stressing out that Greece holds an outstanding record in the seafaring shipping industry controlling 20% of the world’s shipping capacity while representing only 1/600 of the world’s population, Doukas noted that Greece has reshaped its strategy and pursued major openings, with particular emphasis on the regions of Southeast Europe, the Black Sea and the Eastern Mediterranean.
