As legal scrutiny deepens, political reactions have escalated. Mitsotakis' gov refrains from detailed comment until the case file reaches Parliament. The political storm sweeping #Greece is the 2nd case file related to the #misuse of #EU #funds via #OPEKEPE —expected to be submitted any moment today

The investigation concerns alleged felonies and misdemeanours against the financial interests of the EU, namely instigation of breach of trust, computer fraud and false attestation with the intent to obtain for another an unlawful benefit. #OPEKEPE

Nationale overheden saboteren het werk van het Europese OM, @ec.europa.eu geeft ook geen steun. (zie ook: #OPEKEPE schandaal). Wetshandhavers moeten volledige onafhankelijkheid en bevoegdheden krijgen om hun werk te doen. Daarom dus een federaal Europa. Intergouvernementeel werkt niet. @ftm.nl

Κυριακή 21/12 απογευματάκι. Δεν έχετε ιδέα.

Forty-four years after Greece joined what was then the European Economic Community, it looks as if the €180 billion in farm subsidies fell into a giant sinkhole, failing to strengthen the primary sector or benefit consumers. Who's to blame? #agriculture #OPEKEPE www.ekathimerini.com/economy/1289...

Η κοινωνία δεν "ταλαιπωρείται" όταν οι αγρότες κλείνουν τους δρόμους.
"Ταλαιπωρείται" όταν πάει να αγοράσει κρέας, γάλα, τυρί, λαχανικά και δεν φτάνουν τα λεφτά.

The rule of law in Greece is in a dire state. When will the @ec.europa.eu wake up and act? And when will @eppgroup.bsky.social finally put principles over party interests? #Tempi #Pylos #Karaivaz #Predator #OPEKEPE #ZakKostopoulos (and much more)

In two high profile fraud/corruption cases - #OPEKEPE and #Contract717 - the Greek government shows Trumpian contempt for the EU Prosecutors Office. Meanwhile the Guardian of the Treaties @ec.europa.eu is keeping its usual, shameful silence.

This behaviour reflects the state-as-property mindset. It roots before the Greek civil war ('43-'49), perhaps in the two states of opposing sides, during the Great War (1917).

6️⃣ Le Parquet européen insiste : il y a eu fraude organisée sur des fonds européens.

Et cela pose une question directe à Bruxelles :
Comment ces aides ont-elles été aussi facilement détournées ?

5️⃣ Voridis est une figure controversée.

Ancien fondateur d’un parti d’extrême droite, il a gravi les échelons jusqu’à devenir un ministre influent.

Son parcours politique interroge.

La gauche et le centre demandent une commission parlementaire.

Mais sa démission a été acceptée par le Premier ministre Mitsotakis.
