Dim wrote that he found it incredible that Vissi, at 70 years old and with so much experience, had distanced herself from people who were important in her life because, as he mentioned, her environment urged her to do so. He believed that the development would not have a good ending. #Βίσση #κοινωνία #πολιτισμός (translated)

Adonis Georgiadis asked his followers to watch and spread videos from Kalymnos. He mentioned that the gratitude and thanks he heard from patients at the Kalymnos Hospital compensated him for the toxicity he claimed to receive daily from his political opponents. He added that a new idea was implemented at the hospital, which he stated they were planning to soon expand throughout Greece, aiming to improve the lives of citizens. #Κάλυμνος #Υγεία #Κοινωνία (translated)

Greece does not recognize medically assisted suicide, as the relevant regulations are absent from the Criminal Code, creating significant ethical and legal dilemmas surrounding the right to self-determination and the obligation to protect life. #ευθανασία #ιατρικώςυποβοηθούμενηαυτοκτονία #δικαίωμαστηναυτοδιάθεση (translated)

Vicky conveyed excerpts from the testimony of Ilias Papaggelis, the father of Anastasia who was killed in the Tempi accident. He stated that his family's life was divided into "before" and "after" the accident and described his daughter as a remarkable child, with studies and dreams, who lived with them for 18.5 years. He mentioned that the family received her shoes and earrings in a bag, soaked in blood, and that they were not allowed to open the coffin. Papaggelis said he was still seeking answers and argued that if things had operated differently, the accident might have been avoided. He criticized the head of state, saying he should remove those responsible until justice was served. He added that this stance made him wonder if he himself was involved or if he was protecting his associates. He characterized the case as political and asserted that the relationship between businessmen and politicians led to deaths. He stated that 650,000 euros were allocated for the collection of soil along with the body parts of the children, while 100,000 euros were not allocated for traffic management. He called for strict penalties for those responsible and equal treatment for all under the law. Finally, he requested that communications be made public to reveal what the prime minister said to the minister and what the minister said to the head of the Hellenic Train. #Τέμπη #Δικαιοσύνη #Πολιτική (translated)

Karditsastakra wrote that Chrysanthi, 36 years old and a dentist, closed her practice and left the national health system because she refused a mandatory medical procedure. According to him, this decision left her without a salary, insurance, or the possibility of finding another job, along with thousands of health workers. The author mentioned that Chrysanthi faced poverty for a year, participated in protests, and demanded to return to her job. He asserted that she had no substantial support from medical associations, politicians, colleagues, or other entities and that the financial and psychological pressure contributed to her decision to end her life. Karditsastakra attributed the responsibility for her situation to the state and criticized the government's stance toward health workers who refused the mandatory medical procedure. He also referenced a statement by Stelios Petsas that Chrysanthi did not adapt and argued that she chose to resist. He concluded by saying that Chrysanthi will remain, in his view, a symbol of the struggle for freedom and dignity, and called for the imprisonment of those he considered responsible for her death. #Ελευθερία #Δικαιώματα #Ανθρωπισμός (translated)

Chris Avramidis stated that he asked the government how many projects from the Recovery Fund had been completed and were functioning, but he did not receive a numerical answer. He said that Kyriakos Mitsotakis was celebrating "100% absorption" of the 36 billion euros, while, according to a comparative study by PASOK, about two-thirds of the measures in the original "Greece 2.0" plan had been reduced in terms of physical scope, altered targets, or completely removed. According to him, several projects had been transferred to ESPA programs or to national resources. In light of the floods in Crete, Avramidis said that in July none of the four anti-flood projects and the 18 irrigation projects under consideration had been completed, and the same was true for water supply projects. He also noted that none of the civil protection policy objectives he set had been completed: the 13 regional centers, the upgrading of seven Canadairs, and the 11 firefighting aircraft. According to Avramidis, government spokesman Pavlos Marinakis did not provide numbers and referred to other issues such as the personal doctor, the digital tutor, job vacancies, and absorption rates. When Avramidis repeated the question about civil protection projects, Marinakis reportedly said, "you probably have no idea about the functioning of the Recovery Fund," and pledged to ask for an update. Avramidis concluded by asking how much of the initial physical scope had been delivered and how many projects had practically improved the daily lives and safety of citizens. He said he was still waiting for numbers. #ΤαμείοΑνάκαμψης #Πολιτική #Δημοκρατία (translated)

Sampani Konstantina wrote that, in her opinion, when a supporter of New Democracy spoke of the homeland, they meant the party, while when referring to prosperity and quality of life, they spoke of their own. She added that by provisions she meant the direct assignments from which, as she claimed, they would benefit, and that they considered the Parliament a palace and themselves heirs. #ΝΔ #Πολιτική #Ελλάδα (translated)

Panagiotis described Tsipras as a "global phenomenon" and wrote that he defended strikes, even though he had never worked a day in his life, and public schools while his children attended a private one.

Despoina Kanidou, mother of Giorgos Papazoglou, testified at the trial regarding the Tempi incident that the family arrived by car at Evangelismos around 2, while the fire was still burning. She mentioned that her son's funeral took place on March 7 and that the restoration work and backfilling had been completed the day before. Kanidou said that her son's body was one of the three most dismembered and was delivered in two bags: one contained his legs and the other his heart and organs. She stated that the metallic items he had with him and his mobile phone, which she said was functioning, were not found and claimed that the items were thrown away with the soil during the restoration work. She also claimed that there were government orders to remove the soil and that the area needed to be cleared in anticipation of elections. She stated that important evidence was lost with the backfilling. She also referred to the audio of her call to 112, where she heard Frantzeska saying that she had no oxygen, and described how she was preoccupied with what the child had gone through in the last hours of his life. Regarding the absence of defendants from the courtroom, Kanidou mentioned that stationmasters and representatives of ERGOSE were missing and requested that their personal presence be ordered. She added that the defendants continued to work in the same positions. Kanidou argued that if the consortium had been declared bankrupt, contract 717 would have been completed, and she would not have lost her child. She said that extensions and additional funds were given while workers repeatedly sent legal warnings about the possibility of an accident. She stated that the problems were known to the ministry, the RAS, and OSE, and that the family had believed Mr. Karamanlis's assurances about safety. Finally, she said that in 2023, the two trains moved for 12 minutes on a collision course without any safety system working and argued that the functioning of even one system would have prevented the collision. She attributed the deaths to corruption, collusion, nepotism, and impunity. #Τέμπη #δίκη #ασφάλεια (translated)

Amalia wrote that Major Panagiotis Stoupas, originally from Lefki Messinia, had participated in the Asia Minor Campaign and in the Greco-Italian War. According to her post, during the Occupation, he created a resistance group in mountainous Trifylia and later joined the national resistance organization "Greek Army" (ES). Amalia mentioned that, following attacks by ELAS and with the intervention of British Major Harrington, the leaders of the ES signed on August 29, 1943, the Dyrrachium Pact, which stipulated the dissolution of the organization and the integration of its members into ELAS. She argued that those who had joined national resistance organizations were at risk, if captured by ELAS, of being forced to join them or be killed. According to her, Stoupas disagreed with the agreement and returned to Lefki. On October 10, 1943, strong ELAS forces surrounded the village, burned his house, and believed he had died, but he had escaped. Amalia wrote that later Stoupas joined the Security Battalions, as, in her estimation, thousands of other Greeks did. The post stated that Colonel Dionysios Papadogkonas, Stoupas's former commander, appointed him commander of the Security Battalion of Meligalas in March 1944. Amalia noted that after the ELAS attack on Meligalas, Stoupas moved to Gargalianoi with 100 men and was not in the city during the days of the massacre. After the collapse of the defense in Gargalianoi, he and his men retreated to Pylos. According to Amalia, when ELAS surrounded Pylos on September 24, local authorities sought a surrender agreement, while ELAS promised that there would be no massacres. She wrote that Stoupas accepted the agreement and committed suicide with his pistol at the castle gate, after saying goodbye to his men. She also cited the post-war testimony of Chris Woodhouse, who, she reported, conveyed words from British journalist Richard Capell in favor of choosing the Security Battalions instead of ELAS. #ιστορία #Ελλάδα #πατριωτισμός (translated)
