[01] Posidonia 2012 maritime event in June
AMNA / "Greek shipping is still an international pioneer and preserves
its ties with the local production sector, while preparing to meet the
challenges of an uncertain future despite the terrible global crisis and
the tough days our country is experiencing," Union of Greek Shipowners
(EEE) president Theodoros Veniamis underlined in a message on the
occasion of Posidonia 2012.
"A merchant marine fleet of 3,325 ships, constantly upgraded, with a
capacity of 227 million dwt, and an average vessel age of 10.5 years
all under flexible and creative management can justify optimism for
the day after," Veniamis stressed, adding that this year's Posidonia
breaks a new record in terms of participations. www.amna.gr
