With the selection of the OPECEPE case committee, the government seeks to escape the multiple political pressure that is focused on revelations about scandalous processes within the organization. Announcing its choice yesterday, the Maximus Mansion wanted to regain the initiative of the moves and while a few days ago the government’s position was that it would wait for the opposition’s proposals and then positioned, it changed its stance. The backdrop and political dynamics that are being developed within the government majority have made a change of attitude one -way.

In the two recent files that arrived in the Tempe House, the government’s tactic was different and established the so -called “Triantopoulos model”. However, it became clear from a very early age that it would not be easy to apply this “model” to the OPEKEPE case. Primarily because of his special “political weight” Maki Voridis. Who hastened to say in every direction that he would not accept similar handling and that he did not think he did anything illegal.

Indeed, his choice to address the majority of government majority, referring to their own judgment on the case, left open the possibility of a significant number of differences and negative votes against a government initiative similar to that of the case. This became even more specific when the echo of the discontent that many MPs expressed in the tactic adopted by the government began to reach the Maximus Palace, regardless of the real data in the case files.

There were a few MPs of the majority who considered the reference to Kostas Karamanlis. But he asked to vote in favor of the proposal. It is not certain, on the contrary, that there would be a similar encouragement by Mr Voridis. A “guerrilla” parliamentary was estimated that it was more likely than ever.

In addition to the internal front, the choice of examination also serves the narrative that the government has adopted from the first moment for the OPEKEPE scandal: that there are timeless and inter -party responsibilities, that all governments have a share of responsibilities for the situation and for many years has maintained a “greenhouse”

For this reason, the government proposal, which is expected to be submitted to Parliament today, calls for the task of being expanded throughout the OPEKEPE period. The message is clear: to get out of the committee’s work a picture that there were problems and pathogens over time, regardless of the party in power.

Of course, the case file that has arrived in Parliament only relates to the period of the ND’s rule. However, the government says that the case file does not provide sufficient evidence to result in an indictment that would lead to pre -trial investigation and that if these evidence emerges from the examination of the examination, it could be done. How convincing this is, it’s another matter.

It is clear that for the government the examination is the least painful choice, which will primarily help to close potentially internal fronts. It, of course, leaves the government majority exposed to criticism of trying to blackmower, disseminate responsibilities and concealment, data and data that have been made public. But obviously, it was estimated that any wear and tear would be controlled. Much more if the impression is that everyone “They put their finger on the jar with honey.”
