“THEN SYRIZA Had a double crash today. His desire to instrumentalize the case Androulakispushed him to violation of confidentiality and simplification of the extremely important parliamentary process like the hearing of the ambassador Mr. Demir for his appointment as Commander of the National Intelligence Service with leaks from the meeting“, – the commentary of the ND deputy group says.

“SYRIZA’s concern, as evidenced by its leaks to friendly media outlets that published excerpts from the statements of its MPs during the secret meeting, was to create a painful narrative,” adds the head of the ruling party.

And he continues: “The second serious drawback is that, in order to serve your narrative, distorts the response of the EYP commander, since neither his answer nor the protocol can be made public. The government has even expressed a clear position on this issue.”

Ending K.O. ND emphasizes: “His provocative and unprecedented stance in parliamentary times makes him an unreliable interlocutor in the guiding process of the institutional front for the operational structure of the National Intelligence Service. The Committee on Institutions and Transparency has approved Themistocles Demiris as the new governor of the EPM.. The government, with a sense of responsibility, is determined to correct pathologies and age-old weaknesses and will not be stopped by any “polarizations”.

SYRIZA sources: ‘Mitsotakis should say what other politicians he was watching’

“Nothing will be left in the dark,” SYRIZA-PS sources say after hearing the new EYP governor Themistocles Demiris in the parliamentary committee on institutions and transparency, and calling on the prime minister to “say what other politicians he has been watching.” “.

In particular, they report: “Following yesterday’s refusal by a government spokesman to deny that other politicians are under surveillance, today Mr. Demiris at the Committee on Institutions and Transparency has even more strongly reaffirmed the Mitsotakis substate. To repeated questions from deputies about whether there are other surveillances of politicians and journalists, he replied that “for the last 15 days I have completely controlled the Service, no one is released.”

They conclude by adding: “All Mr Mitsotakis has to do now is publicly say which other MEPs and MEPs he follows, for what reasons, and then resign.” “I didn’t know” and “my nephew is to blame for the mistake” ended.

Castanidis: EMP Commander needs to be re-summoned

PASOK-KINAL rapporteur in the Committee on Institutions and Transparency of the Parliament, Haris Kastanidis, in a statement asks for the reappearance of the commander of the EMP, Themistocles Demiris, to report whether politicians are currently being monitored. The update, he emphasizes, should be done before the discussion of the pre-day debate at the level of political leaders in the plenary meeting scheduled for Friday.

Mr. Kastanidis said in a statement that “Today, the PASOK-Movement for Change Committee on Institutions and Transparency declined to give a positive opinion to the newly elected Mr. Mitsotakis as the new commander of the National Intelligence Service. .

And this is because we are going through a period of institutional deviation with the terrible things that have happened in insulting Democracy and the rule of law, and therefore the Prime Minister, who is interested in correcting his mistakes and committed, must come to an agreement with the opposition parties and, within the framework of consensus, appoint a person with broader agreement and support to fulfill its responsibilities.

Before the end of the meeting of the Committee on Institutions and Transparency, an important policy issue for the government was the response of the candidate for the National Intelligence Service, Mr. Demiris, regarding the possible monitoring of politicians.

This major political issue is of paramount importance and has absolute priority in his research. That is why PASOK-Movement for Change, appealing to all political parties, with a sense of national duty and institutional responsibility, demands that the immediate convening of the Committee on Institutions and Transparency be preceded by a pre-planned debate in Parliament at the level of party leaders, so that the current commander of the EMP will again come and give clarification on what we have called an important political issue.

Otherwise, Friday’s debates, without knowing how, under what conditions and why, will become the occasion for a fruitless partisan confrontation that does not contribute to revealing the truth. And most importantly, the truth will not lead political parties. However, we take on this responsibility in order to proceed with institutional solutions that will correct the work of the EYP and put it on the basis of the constitutional order and the rule of law.”
