Choricos wrote that Donald Trump, concerned about an impending defeat in the midterm elections, turned to Russia asking for oil. According to him, Vladimir Putin seemed to agree in exchange for American support for his goals in Ukraine. He added that if Trump persists in his current statements in favor of Volodymyr Zelensky's resignation and the immediate end of the war, Britain will soon follow, leaving the EU facing the burden of the situation. Choricos also described Friedrich Merz and Emmanuel Macron as dangerous for the future of Europe, accusing them of diplomatic rigidity and a warlike stance aimed, as he wrote, at maintaining their positions. #Τραμπ #Ρωσία #Ευρώπη (translated)

Emily Yiolitis accused some of reproducing a misleading title to promote, as she said, "pseudo-patriotism," instead of listening to her entire discussion with Feidias. She added that others did it out of ignorance and others deliberately. Yiolitis stated that she presented her vision for a free, united, and democratic Cyprus, from Paphos to Kyrenia and Rizokarpaso. She declared that she honored the history and sacrifices of the heroes of EOKA and did not question the connection of the Greek national anthem with the struggles of Hellenism. At the same time, she mentioned that she envisioned a common agreement between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots for a truly free Republic of Cyprus, with a common anthem that would express freedom, democracy, and peaceful co-existence. She described a state without constituent parts, divisions, or minority groups of different speeds, where every citizen would have one vote. According to her, such an anthem would not negate the sacrifices of the heroes but would justify them. Yiolitis characterized this position as the essence of her intervention and said that the distortions took her away from its real meaning. She added that she was glad if her statements contributed even a little to a dialogue for the liberation of Cyprus, away from rigidities of the bi-zonal, bi-communal federation type. #Ελευθερία #Δημοκρατία #Πατριωτισμός (translated)

Nikos Appelaios II accused a woman of returning with "fake patriotism" and accused her of distorting her statements. He wrote that she had expressed dissatisfaction with the National Anthem of the Greeks and had called for the liberation of Cyprus from all foreign powers, naming Turkey and Greece. According to him, she had also questioned the interest of Turkey, Greece, and the guarantor powers in Cyprus and had requested that propaganda for Turkish Cypriots and Greek Cypriots be removed from school textbooks. Appelaios claimed that her positions referred to Turkish positions and did not defend history and national rights. He criticized her for speaking about the Bizonal Bicommunal Federation and the heroes of EOKA, while, as he wrote, she had insulted their struggle and memory. He called her disrespectful, ungrateful, historically ignorant, and shameless. #Ελλάδα #Κύπρος #Πατριωτισμός (translated)

Chris Avramidis mentioned that in a few days there would be a large solidarity concert in Halkidiki for a person facing serious health problems and, as he wrote, had refused money from Eldorado. He said that the event could also give a new boost to a movement that, according to him, had suffered persecution, repression, and imprisonments. He reminded of incidents of night police raids on homes and arrests in front of families. Avramidis linked the concert to a similar event against gold mining that had taken place 12 years earlier with almost the same people. He referred to an earlier interview he had with Thanasis Papakonstantinou, who, as he described, had spoken about the protection of the Earth, the relationship of the inner world with the environment and other people, as well as the role of the artist. According to Avramidis, Papakonstantinou had dedicated a song to Eldorado. He said that he had condensed the interview into a short video and that the full version included, among other things, Papakonstantinou's criticism of communist ideology and its approach to the environment, as well as references to previous statements by Antonis Remos in support of Antonis Samaras. He added that the musician had satirized the then-prime minister. The concert, which according to the post would take place on Friday in Ierissos, would feature Thanasis Papakonstantinou, Giannis Aggelakas, Pavlos Pavlidis, Irini Skylakaki, Giannis Charoulis, Natassa Bofiliou, Dimitris (Chaineis) Apostolakis, Social Waste, Dimitris Mystakidis, Matoula Zamani, and Andriana Achitzanova. Avramidis mentioned that Pavlos Aslanidis, president of the association of victims' relatives from the Tempe disaster, and Kyriakos Panagiotopoulos, emeritus professor of Soil Science at Aristotle University, would speak at the event. He also stated that local residents had invited him to participate and coordinate the event, while expressing his determination not to back down against authority. #antireport #skouries #συναυλία #αλληλεγγύη #Χαλκιδική (translated)
