Having “Ground” already through leak his proposal PASOK for formation pre -trial committee which he characterizes inappropriate and legally weak or government It reserves to announce its official position on developments soon. Based on the basis of the first negative and sufficiently derogatory government reactions It becomes clear that even when her executives New Democracy evaluate the text of the opposition’s proposal will not exist consent in the referral of Costa Ah.
