The message that “the government is not going to be a spectator about what is happening in basketball” was sent by government spokesman Pavlos Marinakis on Tuesday morning.
As he told ANT1, “This is our decision and we do not count the political costs. After all, we did about 15 months ago when we announced football measures. Then some thought they would stay back, but we applied it all. “
“What is happening now in basketball are not unprecedented phenomena. The state has been closing in for 45 years, but the government of Kyriakos Mitsotakis is determined to take steps and implemented and proved it, “the government spokesman added.
He reiterated, in fact, that “if by tomorrow at noon, OEM owners do not respond to Mr Broutsi’s call and no solution is found, the championship will be permanently interrupted.”
Concerning the meeting of the Prime Minister, Kyriakos Mitsotakis, with the Rectors, Mr Marinakis said that “the Rectors are our allies in trying to deal with the phenomena of lawlessness in university spaces, but also have their responsibilities for this situation”.
Asked about the University Police, he accepted that it did not work, which, he said, “the prime minister at the TIF also admitted last September.”
