Chinas leader is in greece for a 3 day visit to discuss investments and trade xi jinping will also go to pariah status the Mediterranean Sea port controlled by china us. Shipping company cosco. From athens. Stomach this block us has no doubts about the benefits of chinas presence and greeces largest put his crude repaints ships but during greeces economic crisis they lost most of their work now thats changed. The work has increased 5 fold the chinese reported because they came as a large entity with money and Customers Trust Large Companies like us and his crew are going to repaint this 50000 ton tanker the pirates port of origin shipyard couldnt normally have handled such a large ship but 3 years ago the state owned china ocean shipping company. Bought a controlling stake in the port and last year it brought 2 floating docks to expand its ship repair business costco has big plans its going to build berths for the Worlds Largest cruise ships and turn the ports empty warehouses into 4. 00 and 5. 00 star hotels costco has increased piracy contain a business sevenfold during the decade that its been managing it theres no arguing with the numbers costco has invested 2000000000. 00 here over the past decade and created 2000 direct new jobs and it plans to invest almost another 1000000000. 00 in the next 5 years to create another 2000 jobs such growth would be unimaginable under greek state control the question is what are the political ramifications of such as to Chinese State investment in greece the 3 month old conservative government here has reaffirmed the countrys ties to the e.

Lets get an update from johnson are up with us hes joining us from athens so what should we be looking out for during this 3 day trip and what is the greece hoping to get out of this visit. In terms of the actual events of the trip its very straightforward its the classic state visit of bents the laying of a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier a meeting with the Prime Minister to sign a Bilateral Agreement with the president a visit to the Acropolis Museum tomorrow but in terms of the signaling the symbolism of the visit i think things are much more interesting greece is showing the rest of the world that it is a reliable investment destination this government has been elected on a promise to bring growth to 4 percent of g.
