The mayor of Sparta, Petros Doukas, described as “unfortunate incident” the dialogue he had with the dismissed Minister of Rural Development, Spilio Libanos, about the fornica fires of 2007 after the uproar caused by the controversial video and its deletion from ND.
In a post on Facebook, he noted that what was said was “exaggerated” and apologized to Spilios Libanos for resigning.
The post of Petros Doukas in detail:
“An exaggerated and unfortunate figure of speech took on an unexpected dimension! I’m sorry and saddened that this has resulted in the resignation of one of my most capable ministers and friend. I apologize to him!
I want everyone to know that everything we tried to support the fire victims of Ilia in 2007 (15 years ago), was done with absolute transparency and legitimacy that no one questioned, not even the then opposition!
Everything was done with certificates, and with autopsies carried out by special ladders and the municipalities themselves. The money was distributed by credit institutions with full transparency, with full Government oversight. The certificates were constantly checked by the services of the General Accountant of the State. There was a constant press presence and coverage, and everything was done in full knowledge of all parties and local government bodies, with constant announcements by the Government Spokesperson, and under the sunlight!
As everyone knows, there were not and could not be ‘bags’ or anything like that! It was an ‘exaggerated’ and unfortunate figure of speech to show the magnitude but also the speed of our gigantic endeavor and our sensitivity to our fellow human beings who had been so badly affected and experienced such a drama, with so many dead. Only to demonstrate the speed and flexibility with which the then government operated, so that it could alleviate, even in the slightest, the human suffering caused by the biblical catastrophe – and to highlight and underline the demand of the peasants. of Laconia to hasten the payment of compensation to the Laconian farmers whose crops were affected by the recent frost.
“I respect the decision of the Prime Minister and I wish the Government and the Prime Minister personally to continue successfully their very difficult and very important work, in unprecedented negative circumstances.”
