Just getting back to the blog after a trip to NY Sheep and Wool.
Noted something this morning on the holes in the sanctions on Russia--Greek oil tankers are getting a break. The article referenced the large role Greeks play in oil shipments.
Led me to think of Aristotle Onassis, of Jackie fame. Also of an early scandal after WWII when Greeks picked up cheap ships from war surplus.
And finally to the Iliad and Greek ships. I wonder, has Greece always been prominent in shipping since Troy? Is that culture, or is it geography?
