Socrates Famellos charges the ND government the “full responsibility for extreme scandalous mismanagement in the management system of European agricultural subsidies”
SYRIZA-PS President Socrates Famellos has asked a timely question to the prime minister, seeking answers to the “Corruption Scandal to OPEKEPE”, which “has caused the European prosecutor to intervene. A scandal that defames the country internationally and brings it with serious sanctions from the EU .. “
Socrates Famellos charges the ND government the “full responsibility for the extreme scandalous mismanagement in the management system of European agricultural subsidies, highlighting the dismantling of the Organization during the period 2019-2022 under the coverage of ND ministers and executives”.
Citing the European Prosecutor’s complaints of bullying during audits, as well as the May 19th prosecution at the OPEKEPE offices, the SYRIZA-PS President denounces a cover-up and attempt to avoid political accountability with the transfer of the Organization to AAD.
At the same time, he stresses that the OPECEPE scandal is a characteristic example of the ND customer state and calls for immediate cleansing and restoring the confidence of European institutions and Greek farmers.
In his question, Mr Famellos asks the Prime Minister to be positioned for:
• Complaints by the European Prosecutor and the responsibilities of the Ministers of Rural Development.
• Guarantees for transparency and legality in CAP payments by 2026.
• The compatibility of OPEKEPE’s affiliation with the AADE with the current regulatory framework for the accreditation of the agricultural aid organizations of the Member States.
