We join you in sending our congratulations and well-wishes to the Greeks on this magnificent achievement. The completion of the museum deals a devastating blow to any argument that those holding parts or whole objects, acquired under dubious circumstances, are doing so for the sake of protecting the objects because the legitimate owners have no adequate place to house them.
