With the main aim of demonstrating that he and the government understand and understand the anxieties of the people for the Tempi, but also the existing new data set by the development of the investigations, the Prime Minister, Kyriakos Mitsotakiscame out yesterday and sought to give convincing answers to all the questions that are pressing almost two years after the railway tragedy.

Mr. Mitsotakis wanted to show that he personally shares many of the questions that are asked, repeated several times that “First I want to know the truth”. At the same time, however, he rejected the objections of concealment, referred to justice for the final reason, putting the context of possible incorrect manipulations and responsibilities. Yesterday’s public intervention by the prime minister through an interview with Alpha shows that the government realized that the Tempe issue cannot be relieved, on the contrary, it supplies a growing resentment as long as a number of questions appear to be unanswered. And Mr. Mitsotakis intervened, with his associates stating after the interview was completed that ‘He replied convincingly to everything’. Of course, this remains to be seen in practice, as the next time is crucial for a number of developments, with the long -awaited NTUA report on the causes of the fire.

In any case, it has set the framework within which the officials of the government faction are now called upon to move, by substantially condemning the depreciation of questions, degradation of mobilizations, attacks on victims.

What the Prime Minister said yesterday is:

– the objections that the government is blocking investigations:

“First I want to know the truth” He stressed, while referring to the interventions to open mobile phones in the context of the investigation and the establishment of an independent rail accident investigation.

– For the causes of victims’ death:

“Certainly there were people who died on the train not as a result of the collision. How many are, we will never know. “

– Questions about the existence of illegal load:

“Obviously with what I know today, I wouldn’t say what I said” He said about his report 15 days after the accident that the train did not carry anything suspicious. “If it turns out to be a doubt, the Hellenic Train should be held accountable and politically and politically.”

– For the joke:

“If a mistake was made, the responsible investigator, if he considers that he should say charges, will recite them.” “There is no greater insult for a prime minister and a father than claiming that I at that moment, in pain, sadness, anger, my concern was to conceal what exactly?”.

– For opposition complaints:

“They are blaming people’s pain because they cannot make opposition otherwise”

– For the spikes that the then Minister of Transport was protected and is today a Member of Parliament:

“The fact that he is a Member of Parliament does not in any way affect any possible criminal investigation concerns the role of Mr Karamanlis.” Also, if the judicial authorities decide that there is policies involvement “the government majority will not stand in the way of further investigating such a possibility”.

And said that “I don’t think the examination was the best moment of the House.”

– For the ruling party’s attacks on relatives of victims:

“Mrs Karystianou lost her child. I put end titles on it. And they will do well everyone. I bend my head and have nothing more to say. ”

– For the possibility of resignation:

“No. I have taken over the responsibilities I am, the policies, I still take them “and” the people will overall judge me at the end of the four -year period. ”

– For possible reshuffle:

“It’s not in my immediate intentions.”
