Maria Karystianou criticized Adonis Georgiadis, saying that, in her opinion, he had shifted the public discussion from the issue of transparency to ideological confrontations and attacks on those who hold power. She argued that the participation of Greek ministers and MPs in meetings with foreign lobbying groups in a private club was not a private matter and that politicians were held accountable daily, not just in elections. Karystianou stated that the journalistic record of the participants in such meetings did not constitute intimidation, but rather was part of press freedom. She added that foreign policy and the defense of national interests should, in her view, be conducted institutionally, with transparency and respect for international law. In the postscript to her statement, she referred to public statements by Georgiadis and Maria Pagoni regarding a bioresonance machine, which, as she wrote, had a European CE marking and had not been previously verified. She also mentioned that she had information about leaks from the ministry concerning her alleged participation in a company that conducted chemotherapy without a license. She claimed that she only operated her own clinic, accused the minister of targeting her, and stated that he would lose. #Διαφάνεια #Δημοκρατία #Ελευθεροτυπία (translated)

Amalia challenged the leftist narrative regarding the participation of women in the Democratic Army of Greece (DSE) during the Civil War, arguing that their enlistment did not necessarily indicate emancipation. She cited data indicating that about 10,000 women served in the DSE, approximately a quarter of its total strength. Of these, she wrote, 30% participated in combat units while the rest worked in the rear. At the time of the posting, 3,000 of the women were "Slavo-Macedonians." Amalia mentioned that these women were connected to the Anti-Fascist Women’s Front of Macedonia (AFŽ), which was established in Skopje on December 14, 1944, and functioned as the women's section of the NOF. The NOF, she wrote, was founded in Skopje in April 1945 with the initiative and support of Tito and, after an agreement between the KKE and Tito, was incorporated into the DSE. She argued that these organizations aimed for the incorporation of Greek Macedonia into the "Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia." Amalia stated that after the Stalin-Tito split in 1948, the KKE established the Nationwide Democratic Women’s Union (PDEG), as it could no longer control the AFŽ. According to the posting, the first event of the PDEG took place on October 25, 1948, in Kallithea Prespa, with 44 women, seven of whom were "Slavo-Macedonians." Chrysa Chatzivassiliou was elected president, who, as she wrote, was described in a misogynistic manner by party officials. She also cited a report by Nikos Zachariadis to Stalin on October 17, 1950, regarding the condemnation of Chatzivassiliou by the 3rd Conference. Regarding the other 7,000 women, Amalia argued that the majority were forcibly recruited. She referenced Markos Vafeiadis's estimate that from mid-1947, recruitment into the DSE had become "entirely violent" and that volunteers did not exceed 10%. She also cited research by the author Tasoula Ververioti on the educational level of women, as well as testimonies about difficult living conditions, shortages of clothing and hygiene products, and health issues. She added that many had suffered sexual assaults. As sources, Amalia cited works by Tasoula Ververioti and Margarita Lazaridou, as well as material from the Philip Hiliou Archive at the ASKI. In the end, she mentioned Mirka Ginova (Irene Gkin), Katina Andrejeva (Andreopoulou), Afrodita Dovalovska, and Jordana Slatnikova, along with their places of origin. #Γυναίκες #Αριστερά #Ιστορία (translated)

Adonis Georgiadis wrote that a campaign of impressions against the National Health System was continuing, as he indicated. He said that a well-known leftist trade unionist had claimed that surgeries at Thriasio Hospital were canceled on the same day due to a lack of blood, characterizing the claim as false. Georgiadis argued that the surgeries were being carried out as normal and that blood had been sent in a timely manner. https://t.co/ht00RGmHVd #ΕΣΥ #Υγεία #Θεραπεία (translated)

Amalia claimed that the Bulgarian occupation in Eastern Macedonia and Thrace continued from September 9 to October 26, 1944, with the complicity of the EAM. She wrote that this period was omitted by leftist historiography and that, after the communist-controlled Patriotic Front took power in Bulgaria, the Bulgarian forces did not withdraw from the Greek areas that had been ceded by the Germans. According to her, the EAM followed a "brotherhood" line with the occupiers and had agreed to the annexation of Eastern Macedonia and Thrace to Bulgaria. She also claimed that Soviet officers and soldiers had arrived in Komotini, Xanthi, and Drama, saying they were waiting for units for operations in Thessaloniki. Amalia stated that George Papandreou informed Churchill, who requested from Moscow and Sofia the complete withdrawal of the Bulgarian troops; according to the post, they left on October 26. Amalia added that Bulgaria attempted in July 1946, at the Paris Peace Conference, to claim Western Thrace with the support of the USSR, but the British rejected the request. As sources, she cited works by V. Kontis and S. Sfetas, Andreas Papandreou, Vasileios Kontis, and Chris Woodhouse. #Βουλγαρία #Ιστορία #Κατοχή (translated)
