(3) What have China--or COSCO--got so far, at the port?
New Greek Government to Halt Piraeus Port Privatisation: Official. AFP, Jan 28, 2015
("COSCO already has a 35-year concession to expand the two main container terminals at Piraeus")
My comment:
(a) In other words, COSCO might--just might (because "halting" or "under review" is the same as "permanently cancel"--not get the two thirds ownership of the port. COSCO may still keep the 35-year contract.
(b) There is no need to read the rest of the AFP report.
