“Our cooperation was loving and in fact there was nothing conflict”
“There was no disagreement or friction with the (then) Minister of Rural Development M. Voridis,” his former president reiterated OPECEPE Gr. In response to a question by majority MP M. Lazaridis, Mr Varras said that “there was no disturbed relationship with Minister M. Voridis. I had no disagreement. I had no frictions. Payments were very good. There was no reaction, no moaning in substance. We basically left laughing (after my resignation). I was surprised to read in newspapers and sites, that there was friction, ”said Varras. As he typically noted, our cooperation was “loyal” and “in fact there was nothing conflict.”
In another question by ND MP, Mr Lazaridis, if he had received Mr Voridis’ intervention as to who had to be checked by the organization, he responded negatively. “By the Minister himself, never. I may have had a secretary -general. Mr. Stratakos. He tells me, why is it controlled – September it was – Mr. Xylouris’ wife? I was surprised, and I wondered, through a address, some vice president, not illegally, gave, within the context of legality, some order for control. This didn’t happen. I call the person in charge of Crete. He tells me with apostate, it’s a sampling check that is done. Tell, please, the Secretary General does not interfere with our work. ” And in the Lazaridis question if the check was done, Mr Varra said he did not remember. “I imagine it happened. To get this answer from the Director of Crete, the check was certainly done. Sure. It didn’t stop. […] I believe and appreciate that findings should have been found if findings were found, so no payments were made. From the publication, there is moaning from Mr. Xylouris Acho some other people who have not been paid … “.
Subsequently, and to a question by the minority rapporteur, Milena Apostolakis, about who is responsible for his dismissal, he replied, “Mr. Voridis”. “You say in your note to Deputy Minister Mr. Mylonakis that” you have been unleashed “. So these lawlessness, Mr. Voridis wanted to continue and abolished you? Correctly;” Mrs Apostolakis insisted, with Mr Varra saying she agrees. Asked by PASOK’s MP, about “who had it set up”, Mr Varras said: “The technical adviser. Neuropublic-Gargalakos. ” On whether “there is a relevance of your dismissal and new administrations”, Mr Varras said “I am tough and rational to my work. Some didn’t want it. They wanted something light, and this light creates other things ”while in the next question by M. Apostolakis, what requirement was the requirement the requirement was [εκπαραθύρωσή του» ο μάρτυρας επανέλαβε ότι «ήταν κατ’ απαίτηση της Neuropublic και της Γαία Επιχειρείν […] (with performer) Minister Mr. Voridis »
According to the EIA, Mr Varras also responded to how his note came to the Deputy Minister under the Prime Minister, G. Mylonakis. Specifically, in a question from SYRIZA MP Vassilis Kokkalis, he said: “I went to inform Mr. Mylonakis, not for OPECEPE. I had information from the EU that we would eat imputation […] That there was a matter to lift accreditation for the organization. There, in the conversation, he says to me, “Don’t you make us a note about the organization you know some things?” This is how this happened, ”said Mr Varras.
