Political conflict over the national tragedy in Tempe has been avoided because of the three days of national mourning that the government has declared. Respect for the dead and the families of the victims cannot be ignored. However, from the statements of the leaders of the opposition parties, as well as their officials, it is clear that the forces of the minority in the parliament are “sharpening their knives”. And the Maximou correspondingly prepares to answer. His position was indicative Yannis Economou during the briefing of the political editors he said: “the truth saves, especially in difficult times and the government has nothing to fear from this truth, I hope neither does anyone else”.

The latest information indicates that the prime minister does not plan to change his plans regarding the conduct of the elections. The skai.gr had written that the speed with which he moved with the resignations of the responsible minister Kostas Karamanlis and the heads of OSE and ERGOSE show his will to quickly take the initiative of the movements, so that there is no need to postpone the original plans. He has not opened his papers, but it is not excluded that next week, with the meeting of the cabinet, political developments will also run. April 9 remains the most likely date for the polls to be rigged.

It is now certain that the opposition as a whole will focus its pre-election criticism on the omissions and failures from the tragic train accident in Tempi. And the majority is expected to respond with references to past tragedies that cost the country dearly. The “hard rock” that will follow is sure to cause a fierce political confrontation that will raise the political thermometer to the heights. Already from the economy and the follow-ups the atmosphere was extremely tense. The truce will not last long and that was evident from his visit Alexis Tsipras in the engine room in Rentis. “They described to me the chronicle of a foretold tragedy, the causes of which, no expediency can conceal. And at this time of mourning, I have only one thing to say. We owe it to the people we lost unjustly, to do everything we can, everything in our power, so that nothing and no one is left in the dark”, said the president of SYRIZA.

It moves on the same wavelength PASOK with the secretary of the parliamentary group, Evangelia Liakoulis, stating that “the contracts for the remote management system started in 2016. The one updated in 2016 was not signed. At the end of 2020, a new, annex to the contract, which in the end was not only not signed, but the old remote control system also stopped working.” Dimitris Koutsoubas was in Tempi yesterday and pledged that “the knife will reach the bone” and that the role of the KKE will be focused on highlighting the state, government, individual and private company responsibilities that exist.
