Full statement by K. Hatzidakis

“I do not believe in any way that the Prime Minister, with whom we have excellent cooperation and who has honored me with his friendship for so many years, has the slightest possibility that he is involved in this whole story. I emphasize again! After all, all three prime ministers with whom I worked were always aware of all important decisions in the ministries that I served from time to time. My political choice was clear and known to both me and the Greek citizens.

However, the whole business, which has occupied public life since August, does not cease to be smelly. Rampant script and nomenclature, incredible political empathy and undisclosed tricks make the situation even worse. That is why I believe that, in addition to the initiatives of the Prime Minister and the Government on a new modern structure that effectively combats illegal software and puts the National Intelligence Service on a new and pathogen-free basis, the greatest possible acceleration of relevant actions is required from justice.

Justice must resolve this whole matter quickly and comprehensively, leading to the punishment of all those who were unlawful in any way in this particular case. This is a matter of democracy!”
