flag China criticizes U.S. push to limit its influence at Greece’s Piraeus port, calling it interference.

flag China has condemned U.S. flag Ambassador Kimberly Guilfoyle’s calls for Greece to reduce Chinese influence at the Port of Piraeus, calling the remarks interference in Greece’s sovereignty and driven by Cold War-era rivalry. flag The Chinese Embassy emphasized the port’s economic benefits to Greece and dismissed U.S. efforts to pressure Athens as self-serving. flag Meanwhile, Greece is advancing a U.S.-backed $125 million project to expand the Elefsina Shipyards into a multi-use logistics and defense hub, aiming to diversify Mediterranean trade routes and reduce reliance on the Chinese-operated Piraeus port. flag The initiative, supported by legislative changes, is part of a broader strategic partnership with the U.S. focused on energy security and economic growth.
