Maritime analyst, lecturer on shipping topics at educational institutions and organizations abroad—particularly in the United Kingdom—member of the Chios Marine Club, HESGB, author, and co-founder of allaboutshipping.co.uk, John Faraclas, spoke on the show “Fair Winds and Following Seas” about the current geopolitical situation and its impact on global shipping.
The discussion covered laws, policies, and Donald Trump’s plans concerning the shipping industry, Chinese shipyards, the Panama Canal, Greenland, Canada, and efforts to combat the Houthis and terrorism. How might these factors influence the global economy and, in turn, international trade?
John Faraclas also emphasized the importance of bringing the Greek flag back to Greek-owned ships navigating the world’s seas. He further highlighted the significant work of the Chios Marine Club.
