Greek PM salutes 'a game changer'

Pioneering investment in port by COSCO in 2009 'is just the start'

China's decision to invest in the port of Piraeus in 2009 has been described by Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras as a "game changer" for the future.

Samaras said he believes Chinese shipping giant COSCO's investment is just the start of strategic Chinese involvement in Greek infrastructure, aimed at turning Greece into a more functional gateway to Europe.
