The maritime analyst, lecturer on maritime topics at educational institutions and organizations abroad, particularly in the UK, member of the Chios Marine Club, author, and co-founder of allaboutshipping.co.uk, spoke on the show “Fair Winds and Following Seas” about the American elections and the potential impact on Greek commercial shipping if Donald Trump returns to the White House.
He also commemorated a significant historical anniversary for Chios: on November 11, 1912, the naval island was liberated from Turkish rule.
This day marks a pivotal turning point, where Chios’s history entered a new era with the island’s liberation from oppressive Turkish occupation. A long period of occupation ended, leading to progress and, gradually, dominance in the seas by Chian sailors and shipowners.
