“It is clear that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ response to the spokesman of the Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman. However, I would like to point out the deception of the domestic “Zacharovan” if I am allowed to be the phrase, that is, the supporters of supporters in Greece, of all that Mrs. Zacharova represents. These are unscrupulous, inaccurate positions that are opposed to the truth and our national interests, “said the government spokesman, Paul Marinakis, In a question in informing political editors.

I don’t pay attention to hypothetical questions. The debate about the intentions of the former prime minister is tired when that time has come and Mr Tsipras makes his decisions, here we are political criticism, society is elsewhere. “
On the OPECEPE case, and in particular the evolution of the work of the Inquiry Committee, the government spokesman noted that “The only thing that confirms Mr Varra’s deposition is that there was no intervention on the side of Maximus Grand and no disposition of concealment. Also, Mr Varra’s testimony does not describe any criminal responsibility of former Minister Makis Voridis, a narrative that the opposition has tried to build. “

Regarding gaps, observed in schools at the start of the school year, the government spokesman noted that “this year we have more teachers, it is true that the needs are high and in terms of parallel support. This year the coverage was completed earlier and the Ministry of Education is above so that there are the least possible gaps. “
Concerning the repatriation of activists heading to Gaza and the reflection expressed on the cost of the business, Mr Marinakis stressed that the safe repatriation of activists had been overwhelmed and added that “I consider it to be a reasonable reflection, Taxpayers. Unfortunately, there is no framework for the cost of charging costs, especially as long as there is no fault of the State. However, in similar cases in the future such a search can be made. I remind you that Greece has participated in humanitarian missions. “
Asked about the incidents, which took place at the protest gathering outside the Israeli embassy on the anniversary of the Hamas attack, Mr Marinakis stressed that the police did their job and spoke of a hypocritical humanity of some. “I wanted to know what they had in their minds, who, on the day of Hamas’ black anniversary, protested against Israel. It is creepy and tragic, but it also has a positive reading that their nudity is revealed in all its glory, “the government spokesman said.
Concerning the judicial developments around the Tempe tragedy, the government spokesman stressed that “She did not succeed in the bay of Mrs Konstantopoulou, who wanted the trial to be postponed. It is a political -lawyer who plays the game of impressions and delays. “
