Reporters United commented on the minister's responses, arguing that his refusal to name the MPs who participated in a private meeting of the Israel Allies Foundation confirmed their report of a secret meeting and contradicted a previous statement by the minister. The outlet stated that the minister, by saying that a group of Greek MPs from the Israel Allies Foundation had not been formed, denied Kostas Tsiaras, who on October 15, 2026, announced the establishment of the Israel Allies parliamentary group in Greece. According to Reporters United, this position was also contradicted by Deputy Foreign Minister Haris Theoharis, who appeared alongside Tsiaras as co-chair of the group, and the organization itself, which had posted on its website that the group had been created. Reporters United described the minister's stance that the wiretapping case and Predator were not serious as dangerous for democracy and national security. They argued that Predator had even targeted the Chief of the Hellenic National Defense General Staff and the Ministers of National Defense and Foreign Affairs, and accused the minister of showing indifference to the monitoring of the Armed Forces. Regarding the contract concerning newborn DNA, the outlet reported that the minister canceled it only after their report, when the contract was still secret, and following a public letter from hundreds of scientists that followed their revelations. It added that the minister announced the cancellation to the journalists of Reporters United during a live broadcast by George Avgeropoulos on Athens 984 on May 30, 2025. #Δημοκρατία #ΕθνικήΑσφάλεια #Πολιτική (translated)

Nikos Moraitis criticized the proposal that someone could work seven days a week, especially during the tourist season, if they wished, calling it extremely neoliberal. He argued that seasonal workers do not have a genuine free choice, as, he wrote, they depend on employers who accommodate them in poor conditions and employ them from morning until night. He added that labor rights are their main defense and accused Stefanos Kasselakis of wanting to put these rights into public discussion in the name of negotiation freedom. Moraitis also claimed that Kasselakis had deceived thousands of people by presenting himself as a modern leftist because his party was portrayed as leftist. He referred to his low political performance, saying "zero point something," and concluded that neither Adonis nor the collaboration with the "good New Democracy" represented, in his opinion, the height of political vileness, which he placed in the present. #εργασιακάδικαιώματα #νεοφιλευθερισμός #πολιτική (translated)
