The Government Spokesman commented on the Tempi and the Protection of the Three videos of Interstar in today’s political editors. Paul Marinakisand accused the opposition of hypocrisy.
As Mr Marinakis said, the three videos on Tempi are genuine with the “Voula” and noted the hypocrisy of the opposition parties, pointing out how many questions would have come out if the findings were opposed. “Observe the late days.”
“It is another expertise that says that there was no flammable material on the trading train. I think it’s not right to make announcements but those who come out seem to have other purposes when the figures do not suit them. I think we are close to the closure of the investigative process, “Pavlos Marinakis added.
He stressed that the government has never questioned the need to complete the tragedy, while accusing political forces for spreading fake news and tooling victims’ pain. “Let’s finally let justice do its job,” she concluded.
In detail, Mr. Marinakis’ response is as follows:
“And with” Voula “, these videos are genuine. He will evaluate them, as I said, the investigator. But I would like to show me the opportunity to show a little bit. One is hypocrisy. How many questions would have been asked in the public dialogue, how many announcements would the parties have brought if the police finding was the opposite. Count announcements from the parties, which one-four-four, on average, announcements a day for a tragic accident, tooling human pain. And observe the late days. Because it is not just the news of the identification of videos, it is another expertise that has seen the light of publicity and exists in the case file from mid -February 2024 and is in response to a request for relatives, whose findings probably come to the conclusion – and this will not be judged, And for this development, for this news, I never saw any announcement. I think it is the right thing for the parties not to make announcements of information that is in the case file, so as not to be misunderstood. But those who come out for some elements that exist in the case file, which are wrongly leaking, are obviously that they have specific purposes when they close their mouths when the elements do not suit them. I think we are close and hope that we are close to closing the investigative process, completing the investigative process. We are obviously waiting for the NTUA finding, and above all, to go as soon as possible, but not in a hurry, in the main proceedings, in the trial of this tragic accident. But, I do not hide that, seeing various elements that come out, I start and worry, that the concealment was in the end of the opposite point of view, we had the reverse concealment. Because specific political forces, opposition parties, have disrupted a series of fake news, tooling the pain of the relatives of the Tempi victims, with a clear goal of enraging Greek society and creating a climate of polarization and toxicity in society. No one, in order not to be misunderstood, did not question that in Tempi there were fatal human mistakes with terrible weaknesses of the state mechanism. No one said that was all perfect. No one said that justice – and justice should – should investigate everything and everyone. No one has questioned the government that it must be held accountable to justice -whoever judges justice. I repeat, again, that we are not going to be an obstacle to the investigation of any person, nothing. But all that was built as a narrative by the opposition about concealment, as long as elements come to light, 180 degrees begins and reversed. We have not forgotten the heavy slander of the opposition. I say it again, so as not to be misunderstood. We haven’t forgotten them. Who talked about orchestrators, who made the investigators and drawing conclusions before the process was completed, who used such a vulgar reason in the House, even correlating people’s deaths before the experts were deciding well. We will not forget anything. And the reason we will not forget it is not revengeful. It is because what some have tried to do, poisoned Greek society. So I repeat: All the elements, all the data will be evaluated by justice. Let us all make a joint decision not to make announcements about the data as they see fit, whether or not we are advantageous and let us finally let justice do its job. “
