However, under heavy pressure from the Latsis lawyers, of which we warned in this Blog, Booker is obliged to "correct" references in the column to the ongoing controversy surrounding the contract awarded to a German company, Hochtief, for the construction and management of Athens International Airport, substantially funded with EU money.

Interestingly, it seems that one thing the Latsis lawyers were particularly anxious to deal with was the mention that a Latsis company is currently bidding, with Hochtief, for a huge, lucrative motorway project in Greece, financed with generous portions of EU structural funds.
