China\u2019s Cosco Shipping investment at Greece\u2019s largest port is a win-win project which has transformed Piraeus into a successful port, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said at the opening of an economic forum on Monday.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has been a good deal for Cosco, it has been a good deal for Greece… Piraeus has been transformed into a very successful port. We have made it very clear. We want to make it the largest port in the Mediterranean,\u201d he said, referring to Sino-Greek collaboration in Piraeus in the past decade during a round-table discussion.<\/p>\n

Cosco Shipping acquired the majority of Piraeus Port Authority SA (OLP) shares in 2016 after an international tender, while the Chinese company\u2019s subsidiary, Piraeus Container Terminal SA, has managed the port\u2019s container terminal since 2009.<\/p>\n

The image of Piraeus has improved with impressive results posted in recent years, as work on the port\u2019s upgrade and expansion continues.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a natural entry point for goods into the Eastern and Central Mediterranean. We want to turn Greece into a logistics hub. You can\u2019t argue with geography. It will always take eight to nine days less for ships from the Gulf or from the East, from East Asia, to reach Europe, so I am not willing to give up this opportunity for the country,\u201d Mitsotakis added.<\/p>\n
