Athens, May 12, 2025
A current question to Mr Prime Minister
Subject: What is the real source of the illegal funding of the ND communication arm, its truth and its party executives?
On Tuesday, April 11, the report of the Inside Story informative website records, after a journalistic research, that the company “Blue Skies SA SA” in 2018 and 2019 hired New Democracy officials and a friend of the New Democracy Party with the knowledge of the New Democracy Party. The creators and key pillars of the “Truth Group”, the platform that has evolved into a focal body for promoting the government line and targeting its political opponents. According to the report, Blue Skies and the V+O Group, with which they have been connected until recently, have previously entered into public contracts with public administration and the ND party. A few days later, a documento newspaper reports that among the employees employed by Blue Skies are alleged to be current ministers, advisers to the prime minister, executives of government agencies and the party mechanism. However, the question is – according to the same newspaper – “because none of these employees – executives mentioned in his biography the relationship with the company”. at Blue Skies. Recently, on 23.4.2025, you answered a question Mr Prime Minister that:
“There is no doubt that the Truth Group and the people who staff it are very close to the ND, ideologically and party.” The government spokesman confirmed the same on 29.4.2025, referring to the “Truth Group” in answering a question: ” On 30.4.2025 the Vice President of the Party, Mr. Georgiadis, said in plenary: “To say, how you did it in the New Democracy and made such a successful website that it manages to make so many millions of views every day and to deal with all of Greece with what the team is up for. It is a source of success for the truth and not damage group and, obviously, has no money of the Greek people. “But no one responded to the substance of the journalistic revelations that are; who and why he funded these individuals to support the ND party on a 24 -hour basis. Despite your efforts and your party executives to degrade these serious complaints, the questions remain. Questions about whether there is a “triangular relationship” between private companies, the ruling ND party and government agencies or public organizations. On the same day that we filed reports to the competent authorities to investigate these important questions, there was a pre -announcement of criminal and civil prosecutions against me by your communication arm and today the relevant exodus statement was given to me. Your attempt to silence the opposition so as not to pursue its role through prosecution is unprecedented and will fall into the void, because society and SYRIZA-PS requires that there is a lot of light spilling in this dark case related to a violation of political funding legislation. It is a matter of democracy, the protection of transparency, legality and the rule of law. The above is asked by Mr Prime Minister:
- Who finances communication mechanisms such as the Truth Group and Internet accounts, even anonymous, to target ND political opponents? How many and what party executives at the same time provided their services to the ND party at the same time were or are employees of Blue Skies SA?
- How is legitimacy ensured when party executives and communication mechanisms are said to be financially supported in violation of the law on the financing of parties from private and public funding and how it is ensured that there was no public money split?
