Brothers Panos and Thanassis Laskaridis stole the limelight at the Ninth Annual Capital Link Greek Shipping Forum in Athens last week, delivering punchlines that might upset a few major shipowners or political bigwigs.
The siblings received a leadership award for their services to the country's shipping industry in a career spanning four decades.
Panos — the older of the two at 70 — took the opportunity to slam European regulators.
