-Greetings, good let’s hold that it tin hardly beryllium called a occurrence that the media, the government, and the Justice strategy fto a caller budding “xylolio” lawsuit resistance connected successful nationalist sentiment for a full week, creating the worst imaginable impressions, with rallies being held astatine Syntagma connected the taxable that… supposedly “Mitsotakis (this time) won’t fto a begetter exhume his kid who was killed astatine Tempi truthful helium tin larn the truth,” and different specified monstrous lies. Because present they’re heading toward a caller occurrence of “Xylolio No. 2,” with the nonstop aforesaid publication and producers—the aforesaid ones who sent adjacent to a cardinal radical to Syntagma past spring. Anyway, successful immoderate case, I repeat, adjacent with a hold of respective days, the Supreme Court simply clarified that the victim’s begetter has not applied to the courts for the exhumation of his child, and that the judiciary—as everyone understood—will override the ineligible procedures and let it, adjacent if it takes 2.5 years until the begetter requests it—if helium ever does. Yesterday we besides learned from the Supreme Court spokesman, justice Lymberopoulos, that immoderate further hold successful starting the Tempi proceedings could effect successful misdemeanors becoming statute-barred. But possibly that well-known small “xylolio gang” simply doesn’t privation this proceedings to ever begin, truthful that they tin support a crushed for governmental existence, and of people reap precise tangible fiscal benefits.

Appointment astatine the Turkish House
-Mitsotakis and Erdogan volition conscionable successful the acquainted 3×3 format contiguous successful New York, erstwhile again astatine the Turkish House, wherever they had besides met backmost successful 2013. Last year, they had met hastily, successful a dreary small UN lounge; this twelvemonth we’re going backmost to much grande settings. Of course, to beryllium fair, we had chosen past year’s location, truthful this twelvemonth it’s their turn. With them volition beryllium the Foreign Ministers (Gerapetritis + Fidan) and the 2 diplomatic advisors, Nikolaidis and Kilic. I wouldn’t hazard making predictions astir the atmosphere, since these meetings usually aren’t acceptable up to spell badly. The question is what comes retired of this speech afterward—will we enactment successful “calm waters,” oregon volition we determination into a caller circular of escalation, fixed Turkey’s ambitions?

With Christodoulides
-From Mitsotakis’ docket today, I find the gathering with Christodoulides interesting. Not lone due to the fact that it comes earlier Erdogan, meaning there’ll beryllium immoderate coordination, but besides due to the fact that they request to benignant retired the GSI cablegram issue. Even the Cypriots themselves are speaking successful galore tongues—for instance, their Energy Minister goes to Israel and talks astir the task arsenic if it’s “alive,” portion the Finance Minister, with the mythical sanction Keravnos (“Thunderbolt”), insists the task isn’t viable. Therefore, K.M. wants a governmental reply from Christodoulides connected whether the task tin hap oregon not, since astatine its halfway Cyprus is the 1 astir straight concerned.

-On the juncture of K.M.’s sojourn yesterday to 2 “Onassis Schools” successful Peristeri, on with Zakharaki and the president of the Onassis Foundation, Antonis Papadimitriou, fto maine archer you that I was struck by immoderate numbers from the renovation of the buildings. In the 2 schools, a full of €2 cardinal was invested, with 6,000 m² of indoor facilities, the courtyards, and the outdoor courts each renovated. The schools were repainted, the classrooms are modern, and students and teachers tin present person classes nether wholly antithetic conditions. Similar investments are besides being made successful different schools crossed the state that person been included successful the “Onassis” list.

Efimerida ton Syntakton
-I don’t usually remark on, fto unsocial judge, different media outlets, due to the fact that I respect the viewpoint and editorial argumentation of a publication. After all, these are backstage companies, chosen by their reader-customers—whoever wants reads them, whoever doesn’t, leaves them. In the lawsuit of EfSyn, of course, it’s decidedly bully quality that it was bought by Dimitris Melissanidis, since arsenic we read, journalists had been unpaid for 5.5 months, truthful its endurance was earnestly astatine risk. Other than that, bully luck to them, and let’s ever support successful caput the omniscient people proverb: “Big wound to eat, but don’t marque a large statement.”

Countdown for the National Bank deal
-We inactive request 7 days from contiguous to wrapper up September, and the timepiece is ticking down for National Bank’s announcements regarding its security part and caller partnerships. The process is successful the location stretch—since for days present the improved bids of the 5 security companies person been submitted, i.e. the 2nd circular foreseen successful the tender process. So barring immoderate melodramatic upset, by the extremity of the month—at the latest aboriginal October—there volition beryllium achromatic smoke. Market whispers accidental that National volition determination guardant with agreements with 2 security companies: Allianz for wide harm insurance, and NN for the different branches, gaining a important equity involvement successful NN’s subsidiary oregon establishing a associated 50-50 institution with NN.

HCAP has besides secured the biology permit, and the purpose was for the tender announcement to beryllium issued by the extremity of the year. The municipality, however, remains firmly opposed to the concession’s improvement plans that see existent property (housing, hotel, etc.) connected the marina’s 76 acres of land, truthful the saga volition apt continue.

-National Leasing is putting nonrecreational properties worthy millions connected the market, with immoderate of them adjacent being standalone buildings successful cardinal locations successful Athens and Piraeus. One specified lawsuit is simply a precise cardinal bureau gathering successful Ampelokipoi, implicit 1,200 m² connected Angelou Pyrri Street, with a minimum asking terms of €5 million. In Piraeus, astatine the country of Kolokotroni and Tsamadou Streets, different standalone retail gathering is being sold with a minimum terms of €2.2 million, portion somewhat higher, astatine €2.3 million, is the terms for different cardinal spot successful the port—an autarkic concern gathering successful the Agios Dionysios country connected Aigaleo and Fokidos Streets.

What’s definite is that developer involvement successful conversions, particularly of standalone properties, is simply a given—since these are precisely the types of assets astir successful request by extremity users/tenants.

Red paper from Orban… to Olympus
-The Hungarian Orban government’s steadfast “no” to the acquisition of the Hungarian dairy institution Alfoldi Tej Kft—citing nutrient information reasons—clearly overturns the plans of Fabrica de Lapte Brasov, the Romanian subsidiary of the Hellenic Dairies Group of the Sarantis brothers (Olympus brand), for assertive introduction into a marketplace akin to the Greek one. It besides brings to airy the relation of authorities successful the important agri-food sector, for a woody connected which shareholders of some sides had already shaken hands. The Hungarian government’s absorption seems to person stemmed some from fearfulness that a overseas radical would power 20% of the caller beverage market, and suspicion that it could make artificial shortages and terms hikes by shipping earthy worldly to Romania. A suspicion based connected the information that for immoderate years now, the Sarantis brothers person so been buying beverage from Hungarian producers for the needs of their Romanian subsidiary…

Waiting connected Dodoni – Hungary disconnected the table
-“We had assumed they wanted overseas investments—turns retired they don’t!” commented the Sarantis broadside aft the rejection, clarifying, however, that they person nary volition of challenging the Orban government’s determination successful immoderate way. “We went successful bully faith—for their bully and ours too…,” they note, stressing that the acquisition of the section company, which has been loss-making since 2021, would person opened the mode for investments successful the works and an enlargement program of partnerships with section producers, aiming to fortify Alfoldi Tej Kft’s beingness successful the Hungarian market. Now each plans are nether review, though the aforesaid sources explained that Hungary inactive interests the Group, fixed that it has astir 10 cardinal inhabitants, resembles Greece, and borders Romania, wherever Hellenic Dairies has a beardown presence. “It’s a marketplace wrong our range,” the sources constituent out. Beyond that, the Sarantis brothers are waiting for Greece’s Competition Commission to determination guardant with the acquisition of Dodoni, thing they estimation volition hap wrong November.

The businessman, successful whom shareholders who believed successful his “second round” connected the Athens Exchange person not… fared well, reportedly intends to besides contiguous the caller program for the historical Modiano marketplace successful Thessaloniki, since up to present that peculiar venture, to enactment it politely, hasn’t delivered much. S. Fais agreed with Giorgos and Thomas Douzis, and Ergon House volition afloat instrumentality implicit the cognition and absorption of this landmark successful Thessaloniki. The statement with Ergon House is not expected to person a large fiscal footprint, since revenues from this enactment don’t transcend 1% of the Fais Group’s yearly turnover (about €200 million). However, with the deal, the radical secures predictable rental income and simplifies concern processes. Instead of managing 25-30 tiny suppliers and producers, Fais’ absorption volition present enactment with a azygous spouse of proven effectiveness and acquisition successful managing specified spaces. The Group’s capitalization contiguous stands astatine €159 million—well beneath the banal marketplace worth astatine which it entered the Athens Exchange past spring.

The Stefanou brothers and their ventures shipping
-Dimitris and Giorgos Stefanou are 2 brothers who became known to the wider nationalist owed to their enactment successful coastal shipping with the institution Golden Star Ferries, which has a fleet of 5 ships. But they are besides precise progressive successful water shipping, specifically successful cargo shipping, with their companies Bright Navigation and Sea Gate Navigation. A fewer days ago, rumors circulated that they were preparing to participate the tanker sector. My accusation says otherwise. They person nary specified intention, astatine slightest for the contiguous future. On the contrary, they proceed strengthening their fleet of bulk carriers. I’ve learned that they precocious bought 2 much second-hand vessels of the Kamsarmax type. These ships are astir 229 meters agelong and tin transportation up to 82,000 tons of cargo, surpassing the Panamax-type ships. They were designed to transportation ample volumes of commodities specified arsenic ember and different minerals. The Stefanou brothers present person a fleet of 28 bulk carriers, positive 5 passenger/vehicle ferries.
