As “exaggeration” of the president of SYRIZA-PS characterized the executive of the party, Christos Spirtzis the fact that Stefanos Kasselakis called for elections with international observers.
“I think the position of Mr. Kasselakis was a gross exaggeration, but what has been done since then is also gross” said Mr. Spirtzis speaking on Monday morning to SKAI and the “Today” show.

About Tempe he mentioned that “1.5 million signatures have been collected to shed light on the case and to change the Ministerial Liability Act”.

At the same time, regarding what was published about the accident in Tempi regarding the alteration of the audio documents of the station master’s conversations, Mr. Spirtzis pointed out that the government “he must document in every way that the responsibilities are limited to human error, i.e. between the two train drivers and the station master”.

“Tell us who had access to the tapes, and who chose specific parts of those conversations to release.” pointed out the SYRIZA executive.

Regarding the activation of Article 86, Mr. Spirtzis underlined how he did not do it to pressure Mr. Karamanlis.

“I don’t care to pressure Mr. Karamanlis at all, he is pressured by himself just like the other ministers who have responsibility or don’t have and are involved in this” he said.

Asked if he himself takes a share of the responsibility, he pointed out that “I did what I could» pointing out that the contract was delivered at 74%.

“I don’t feel we could have done any better when we had a contract that was riddled with holes, missing materials, no materials produced for 15 years, no spare parts, no safety specifications” pointed out Mr. Spirtzis, concluding that he too should be investigated if he is responsible.
