CommentOverseeing the second great move from Alexandroupolis where the ARC Endurance, the world's 5th largest ro-ro ship, is again moored to unload a massive amount of military gear for Constanţa.
Although Constanţa is one of the biggest ports in Europe the Montreux Convention prohibits the passage of such large 'military' ships through the Bosporus. So all that gear is off-loaded in Alexandroupolis and driven or transported by train to Romania. Turkey is not happy about this because they fear some of that gear may stay in Greece which they call a 'threat' in their less pompous belligerent moment.
