“The statements of the deputy of parliament N.D. TO. Theodoros Roussopouloswhich relate to the former Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, Mr. Kostas Karamanlis, were not known to him and express Mr. Roussopoulos personally,” notes a source in the office of the former Prime Minister, Mr. Kostas Karamanlis. Kostas Karamanlisanswering a reporter’s question.

Earlier, Mr. Roussopoulos, speaking at OPEN on the Tempe tragedy, said: “We must not allow a national tragedy to turn into a crisis of democracy, because the next step will be extremes, that is, parties that go beyond the Democratic Party. will be useful if we assume that all (politicians) are the same.

When asked if the former transport minister should be a candidate, Kostas Karamanlis said: “I won’t tell him what he will do. The world is always the ultimate judge. I will tell you about this in 2008 when I was wrongfully accused of a crime that was justified by the KKE, SYRIZA, 30 PASOK MPs in Parliament in 2010, and also by the court. In 2009, I told Karamanlis that I would not run. I knew that as much as I wanted to run, it would be a situation I couldn’t fight. There are times in politics when you scream and no one hears you, and there are times when you whisper and everyone hears you. No matter how many rights you have, none of the rights will be recognized. Suppose Mr. Karamanlis did well. The focus was on the individual and the government. And fair to the government or any individual in the sense that they bear full responsibility.”
