In the elections held during the 29th Assembly of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) on Friday, 27 November 2015, in London, Greece was re-elected to the IMO Council for 2016-2017, in category A; that is, the ten member states with the largest merchant fleets.
Greece’s re-election to the IMO Council is a very positive development that reaffirms Greece’s pivotal role in global shipping issues, reflects its active presence, for decades now, in the global shipping sector, and is very important for the promotion of the interests of Greek shipping internationally.
