Chris Avramidis argued that Kimberley Guilfoyle's farewell text revealed that her mission in Greece aimed to serve American interests. He stated that she presented deals for the export of American liquefied natural gas through the Vertical Corridor, the expansion of opportunities for American businesses and investments, and the strengthening of American energy influence and leadership in Southeast Europe as successes. Avramidis described the Vertical Corridor as detrimental to Greek households, whether it is implemented at 50% or 10% by Greek brokers. He argued that hundreds of millions of euros would be directed towards American interests, instead of reducing the energy burden for households, and said that the project was presented as aid to Ukraine, while, according to him, it represented a profitable business opportunity for companies seeking to expand their influence. He also claimed that Guilfoyle threatened that the Greek government could be overthrown if it did not meet the desires of the U.S., and compared this logic to what, he said, happened in 1965 and 1967. He also referred to published allegations that she was asking for bribes and argued that her departure was not enough as a response. He raised the issue of democratic legitimacy, asking who decided that the needs of Greek households had to be subordinated to American interests, and mentioned, along with American multinationals, the large contractor AKTOR. #Γκιλφόιλ #αμερικη #Γκιλφόιλ #αμερικανική_κυριαρχία #Ελλάδα (translated)
