Chris Avramidis wrote that 1,500 artisanal bakeries closed within three years, of which 1,200 for economic reasons. He cited the president of the Professional Chamber, who, according to him, stated that more bakeries had closed than during the Occupation. He added that professionals claimed their energy costs had increased by 40%. Avramidis noted that the four largest energy groups had shown operational profitability exceeding 1 billion euros in terms of EBITDA in 2025 from energy production, trading, and supply activities. He mentioned that he asked the government if it planned to intervene in the market and the profits of the groups to reduce costs for small businesses. According to Avramidis, government spokesman Pavlos Marinakis referred to the greatest energy crisis in history, previous state interventions, and the taxation of windfall profits, while stating that retail electricity prices in Greece were lower than the European average. Avramidis stated that he raised the question of how the closure of small businesses coexisted with the high profitability of energy groups, asking for a specific new measure for bakeries. In his account, Marinakis responded again referencing already implemented measures, fixed household tariffs, and comparatively low electricity prices in Greece, without announcing new support for bakeries. Avramidis argued that the government response did not address the issue of small businesses and that the energy crisis had different consequences for small professionals and large groups. He said that for the former it could mean closure, while for the latter it coexisted with profits of hundreds of millions of euros. #ενεργειακήκρίση #οικονομία #φούρνοι (translated)

He cited two grants that, as he reported, he found on the Erasmus website: €57,200 for the period 31/12/23–30/12/24 and €34,500 for the period 15/12/25–14/12/26. Tsimeros said that his friend had filed a complaint with JINT, EACEA, as well as with officials from the European Commission's Directorate-General for Education, Youth, Sport and Culture, and had also communicated with Greek MEPs. According to his description, he planned to appeal to the European Ombudsman after receiving responses from the agencies or after the expiration of a two-month deadline. #Φόροι #ΕΕ #Κουλτούρα (translated)

Nikolas Apelaios II described the days leading up to the Italian attack on Greece, from October 23 to 27, 1940, stating that the Greek ambassador in Rome had informed the government that the attack was expected between October 25 and 28. According to him, Italian reconnaissance aircraft were photographing military points of interest, while senior Greek officials considered the attack imminent. Apelaios reported that on October 24, Ioannis Metaxas recorded in his diary rumors of an attack the next day and informed the chiefs of staff to remain in Athens or to notify where they were. On October 25, according to the post, Metaxas informed the Cabinet about the concentration of Italian troops at the border, and the government rejected both substantial territorial concessions and symbolic gestures toward Italy. He noted that Metaxas and his ministers did not attend the premiere of the opera "Madama Butterfly" at the Royal Theater on October 25, in the presence of Antonio Puccini and Curzio Malaparte. From the government, as he wrote, Deputy Foreign Minister Mavroudis and Deputy Minister of Press Nikolidis attended. The next day, Ambassador Politis reported that the Athens–Rome airline had been suspended until further notice. In his narrative, at the reception of the Italian embassy on October 26, Ambassador Grazzi was often absent, while on the upper floor the ultimatum to Greece was being dictated from Rome. Nikolidis called Metaxas early on October 27 regarding reports of incidents at the border. Apelaios noted that the Athens News Agency denied the news at 04:00, following an order from Metaxas. Apelaios also wrote that, on October 27, Greek and Italian officers met to discuss the incidents, while the Greek government was receiving information about the movements of Italian units towards the border. He added that shortly after Metaxas left his office, information arrived from the Italian embassy that a declaration of war was imminent, but it was decided not to inform him. According to him, the Prime Minister's car departed for Kifisia without him knowing the information. #Ιστορία #Ελλάδα #ΔεύτεροςΠαγκόσμιοςΠόλεμος (translated)
