COSCO Owned Piraeus Port Becomes China’s Gateway To Europe

A view of the Cosco-owned container terminal is in Piraeus, Greece, on February 22, 2026. China's state-owned COSCO owns a majority stake in the Piraeus port, transforming it into its 'gateway to Europe'. Following the U.S. blacklisting of COSCO, the Americans consider alternatives such as upgrading Elefsina port to balance the Chinese influence. (Photo by Nicolas Koutsokostas/NurPhoto)
