“There is an attempt to conceal. Is it impenetrable to attempt to conceal and hood. Do you have a perception of citizens’ view of difficulty in accessing information?” The president of the Freedom Freedom said initially to then accuse the representatives of journalistic associations in the Region and Athens, and the presidents of the regional press that they appeared in parliament to do public relations with the government. “Are you happy about the situation in our country? The Human Rights Watch report is typical for Greece. There are resolutions of the European Parliament. No matter how you try to seize and negotiate. We are not here to do public relations and do not support the controlled type and a government.”
In response, Mr. Marinakis noted “I take the floor to protect the process and obligation I have to people who came after invitation not only the majority but almost all the opposition parties you may have fought to get out of the EU but we will stay in Europe for many years.

Konstantopoulou: You were laughing when I was talking
Marinakis: What I was seeing was for crying and I didn’t want to cry. The annual report told us that our country has made progress.
Then the government spokesman said: “None of the representatives of the press in the press came here from all over Greece to survive your own fake narrative and this is bothering you. Lies that you are constantly reproducing. Obviously it has issues and wants solutions but also recognizes progress.

Konstantopoulou: Oh, now interrupt me? Show who you are.
Marinakis: We will not compare us with Goebbels
Konstantopoulou: Do you condemn Netanyahu?

Barzokas (Committee Chairman): I cannot accept the designation
Konstantopoulou: Can you ridicule?
Barzokas: Not the same

Barzokas: I will ask you to recall.

At the end of the meeting, Ms Konstantopoulou took the floor again, insisting on criticism of representatives of the bodies, telling them that they are involved in a “shameful show” with the aim of transaction.
“I never exercised my duties for public relations or at the level of exchange. I have no suspension to say what citizens are entitled to know, ”he said.
“How is it possible on the day of the journalists’ strike to take place today this discussion of listening bodies. We disagreed. At a time when freedom issues of the press are very serious. You know I have grown up as a journalist daughter with Mayer’s saying “publication is a soul of justice” and she strangled me to hear answers about issues that are being resolved by the bill and gave the minister’s credit for the issues he solved.
I was struck by an answer that said there were problems but they have put them in their memos. It is striking that no objections to listening to operators are recorded. It’s the hearing for you. You say you have objections but you did not say it and it is an example of the government’s terrifying intervention in the press, “he said to add” it is huge that there is no news on the Gaza issue.
And it is the intervention of the government. The government who does not want to say crime of Tempi, does not want to talk about genocide in Gaza, it doesn’t even say the word Palestine. If you reacted once I will react 100. “
Zoe Konstantopoulou went on to say: “The owner of the channel is another, another the right of the citizens to inform and the other the owner of the frequency. Citizens are looking for information and do not have it. The meeting must independently be evaluated by human rights associations because it confirms self -censorship phenomena.
It is a shame what happened and if you want to correct it to reschedule the meeting and call the journalists. The government executed the authors’ associations because you put it on the day of strike. Excluded the independent authorities. The meeting is tragic. “
Barzokas: How much time do you still want?
Konstantopoulou: a minute
When not at least 5 minutes passed Mr Bardzokas came back saying: It has passed 1 minute
Konstantopoulou: Did I ask you to let me know?
Barzokas: You said you want a minute and I let you know that it’s over
Konstantopoulou: I leave you to the Citizens’ Crisis as Secretary of the Tempi Examination
Bardzokas: And I leave you to the citizens’ judgment as a strange affair
Konstantopoulou: What did you say? What did you say? Curious Affairs? Who?
Barzokas: Whatever you heard. I don’t answer you
Konstantopoulou: Answer or recall. Don’t you be ashamed a little? What curious cases am I lawyer?
