Has it been used to hack into the phones of your political opponents? Why did you change the law and remove the second EEM prosecutor in 2018? And you also have a great clarification from 2018, and you wrote that “national security related is top secret.” I will not read the position of the head of ND. I’ll tell you what Mr. Alivisatos says, why you did it. “There was also a prosecutor who was fired by SYRIZA because then there was a prosecutor who rejected the requests sent to him by Mr. Rubatis.” Read it. And you, Mr. Katrinis,” he said.

You say “no” to transparency and the prohibition of malware,” the prime minister said and added: “We are objectively in the pre-election period. We are separated by several months. The political calendar is already denser, no need to add even more toxicity to it. I will insist on dialogue about big and important things, and not about small and hypocritical things.”
