“The government’s road map for the rehabilitation of its fire victims Attica does not satisfy us, because it is an after-the-fact plan that does not deal with the core of the problem in our country”, pointed out the SYRIZA press representative, Voula Kehagia.

Speaking to Manoli Kostidi and Nadine Hardalia on Wednesday morning, Ms. Kehagia accused the government of inventing a different alibi every year to justify itself, such as climate change, when in fact it has not taken any action. “During the five years of the Mitsotakis government, 2.8% of the forest area of ​​our country burned, our role, as you understand, is not to caress the ears of the government. Undoubtedly, there are a number of unanswered questions regarding the response to the devastating fire, which we have raised with the Ministry of Climate Crisis and Civil Protection, such as how many aircraft were flown.”

With reference to SYRIZA and the rumors about Stefanos Kasselakis entering the Parliament after the resignation of the State Member of Parliament, Othonas Iliopoulos, the representative of the Official Opposition party underlined that it is important that the president of the party is present in Parliament, as he will be in charge and the Parliamentary Group. At the same time, he clarified that no other MP has been asked to resign in order for Mr. Kasselakis to take the seat, adding:

“Ms. Georgeta Lali now belongs to the New Left and this means that with her attitude, even if all the previous ones on the State’s list resign, she is presuming that she is closing the door of the Parliament to Mr. Kasselakis. It is not reprehensible that 16 MPs and party officials have come out to express their opinion.”

“The government is using the issue of Nikos Pappa to hurt us – No irregularity in the swimming pool in Spetses”

Asked about the issue of the party’s MEP, Nikos PappaVoula Kehagia stated that “our MEP has been elected by the vote of the Greek people, who apparently do not consider him to be an underworld”, speaking of “splitting statements” and accusing the government of intending to preserve the specific issue in order to hurt SYRIZA.

Finally, Mrs. Kehagia clarified that there is no irregularity regarding her pool of Stefanos Kasselakis on Spetses“The archaeological service went, not the urban planner. Once such a check is made, we will talk then. In fact, Mr. Kasselakis’ swimming pool is a reservoir, now any other discussion simply serves the ND,” he concluded.
