The message of Vangelis Marinakis in all direction absolutely clear and clear, indicative of his intentions: “I’m not afraid, I don’t blackmail, I don’t interfere with, I don’t give up, I don’t succumb. The truth will shine again. Democracy will prevail. “
The members of the administration of PAO OLYMPIC PAE They are referred to 2 offenses, with prestigious legal circles commenting on “the complete non -existence of aggravating elements ยป and talk about construction of categories.
Notable is also The unprecedented speed for Greek justice, since both the Prosecutor and the Judicial Council, which followed its proposal literally, allegedly studied a daunting case in a few weeks. 35,000 pages, With a multitude of substantial and legal arguments, which did not bother to evaluate, let alone refute. Concerning a direct contradiction with the judgment of the investigator, who was taken over by the case, persuaded the innocence of the members of the PAE administration, he did not impose any restrictive reason on them.
Finally the Judicial Council’s parliament is nothing more than a re -formation of the category formulated and the negative prosecutor’s proposal.
Any And if he reads this parliament, no matter how he searches, will not find any reasoning, Some arguments that support the referral of the members of the Olympic administration.
Vangelis Marinakis’ announcement
Under the panic regime, the prime minister, along with his scandalously beneficial and dependent Mitsotakis media crutches, attempt to blackmail me and put me hostage, once again justice tooling me.
This is a coordinated attempt at me, but hopeless. After all, this is not the first time this has been attempted. The same have been unsuccessful in the past political and economic interests in the past through reinforced affairs and accusations that fell in awe. The evidence is overwhelming and show that the first victim in this case is justice itself and its institutions.
The obvious goal is me and Olympiacos. But what they are really seeking is to hurt the freedom of the press, the independence of the media, and ultimately the democracy itself. Authorities non -negotiable for the media listed on the Athens Stock Exchange, ALTER EGO Media.
Criticism and control of power, the primary role of the press, the revelations of the scandals and corruption that prevails in the leadership of the current government, obviously cannot be tolerated and are not forgiven by Maximus.
I walk on a different path from the government’s venues and I will insist on moving to him regardless of honor. I choose to follow the words of Nikos Kazantzakis: “Tell the truth and whatever it takes! Never admit to lie. Anyone who lies is a slave. A free man always tells the truth. “
I absolutely understand how much my choice is bothering a prime minister and a government, who feels that they are losing power and popular legitimacy, are slipping into a situation that is reminiscent of more and more – totalitarian regime.
I will not become a co -operator. I will remain against government practices that led the country to the last position between EU states, the global index of freedom of the press, and shaken the confidence of the Greek people in the institution of justice. It is also no coincidence that within society there is a perception that the government has circumvented the independence of justice in a series of cases, from the spy, to the crime of the Tempi, in the latter without a trace of respect for the victims and their families. And all this happens in a country in the penultimate position in the European Union in terms of GDP per capita.
The message I send is one and clear: I am not afraid, I do not blackmail, I do not interfere with, I do not submit, I do not succumb. The truth will shine again. Democracy will prevail. In the end we will be (as always) winners.
