The Battle for the Center, the Rhetoric About the Right’s ‘Soul’, Tsipras vs Androulakis, a Lord to Rescue the Kypseli Metro Project and Indian Interest in Greek Ports
From the battle for centrist voters and fresh government plans to ease energy costs to the stalled Athens Metro project, Greece faces mounting political and economic challenges. Meanwhile, Indian interest in Greek ports, banking deals and major developments in technology and shipping are reshaping the business landscape
The new Middle East (Anna–Karvelas) is heading to court, Rubio on K.M., Theodora moves toward PASOK and Efi toward Alexis, pollsters on Kasidiaris
Are we 6–12 months away from a potential financial crisis?
An afternoon on the Pnyx (Rubio, who doesn’t resemble Trump), when Aris (with the curl) praises anti-woke Antonis shortly after Stefanos, fresh money for “Freskoulis”
Sunlight found a key to China & the printing press which does not set the interest rate
Anna, Karvelas, the jasmine pot and Koustas’s greenery, Diamantidis bought Panagopoulou’s house in Kavouri
The Germans’ “no” to COSCO and the question of Piraeus
The fiery (and very colorful) little admiral, the fishing on Stefanos’ boat, the neighbors of Sarakiniko, the bombs at the port of Thessaloniki
Losses, but fewer liabilities
Elections from the beach, John Lennon’s spirit at the Maximos Mansion and “greenery” for everyone, Samaras’s anxiety over Kasidiaris and Karystianou
The eleven in wigs
The inauguration of PASOK (and of the… psychiatric hospital), Maximos Mansion keeps its distance from the market’s “peace processes,” Alexis, Hades and Mount Athos, the banks and their loans
New round of deals in Greek shipping & the best customer for Russian oil
Mitsotakis’s measures, courtesy of Pierrakakis; arrogant ministers and “open secrets” at each other’s throats; Alexis on Mount Athos (bless us!); Rubio in Athens
The 120-instalment scheme and servicer rules are due by the end of October, fuel subsidies face review around 14 October, Greek Patriots are set to stay in Saudi Arabia and Volotea is restructuring its debt
The embassy, the Vertical Corridor and the WSJ, the cabinet measures, complaints about opinion polls, the foundations at Maximos Mansion, and Saint Kyriakos the (non-)hermit

The heading of the shipowners' item had a stray closing quotation mark in the Greek, which I dropped. "K.M." is rendered as the Prime Minister. SEDEA, the Strategic Contracts Unit (PPF) and the National Development Fund are my renderings of the Greek names and are worth checking against house usage.
Hot news and the funding account, communications recalibration, Pierrakakis and Lagarde’s successors, Koutras’s “Daedalus” at Ellinikon
Hello. I know that the hottest gossip in Athens (and beyond) these days is what is going on, how it is developing and who is up against whom in the business rivalries over contracting. Now they have moved into energy too, with vertical and… horizontal corridors, international media, transatlantic multibillion-dollar pipelines and so on. Since […]
