Amalia argued that Lazopoulos was a well-paid "voice" of a power system that, as she wrote, wanted to prevent the return of "Koulis" to the premiership. She mentioned that Antonis Samaras had a similar desire, whom she described as divisive. In her assessment, as the other politicians who had entered the political arena could not respond, Samaras was the last hope of the system. She added that Samaras was theoretically the only one who could draw percentages directly from New Democracy, presenting himself as the "soul of the party." She urged readers to prepare for propaganda in favor of Samaras from his occasional allies and the figures she described as their mouthpieces. #πολιτική #Σαμαράς #Ελλάδα (translated)

Nikolas Moraitis wrote that Macron proved to be a politician with a limited role, who brought Le Pen closer to power. However, he argued that active cores remained in France that showed their strength, led by the youth. He invoked the legacy of the Enlightenment, modern philosophical thought, Art, and May, stating that these remained living values for some despite the decline of Europe. He contrasted France with Greece, which he described as a society that had abandoned its values. He accused those, in his view, who used the flag as cover for corruption, lies, and self-interest, while also criticizing the admiration for a family he characterized as mafia-like. In the end, he ironically referred to the anticipation of a pass or state benefit and the attribution of blame to those who had tried differently, presenting freedom as limited to the space of a bed and sleeping through the darkest years. #Γαλλία #Μακρόν #ΛεΠεν (translated)

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)

My responsibility is to listen, to address legitimate concerns, and to keep Albania on a path of progress.

Nikolaos Drandakis wrote that in the new Apple advertisement, the son was portrayed as arrogant and foolish, while the daughters were depicted as smart, dynamic, and independent. He also mentioned that the mother appeared as the one providing financially for the family and held power, while the father was presented as incapable of cooking and stayed behind for household chores. Drandakis used insulting terms for the "woke" and argued that they had taken high positions and were not going to leave. #Apple #διαφήμιση #woke (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)

Today's power seeks a dream of totalitarianism. A politics without opponents. A monophonic press, a dependent judiciary, a powerless parliament, a frightened society. And at the end of all this, a power that will never change. Mr. İmamoğlu reiterated that the prosecution against him has purely political motives and aims to exclude him from political life, while he argued that the government systematically weakens democratic institutions to eliminate the possibility of political change. #Ιμάμογλου #Ερντογάν #πολιτική (translated)

Amalia wrote that on October 10, 1993, early elections took place in Greece and PASOK returned to power, where, according to her, it remained for the next 11 years. She attributed the fall of Konstantinos Mitsotakis' government to the independence of New Democracy MP George Sibilidis from Kilkis on September 9 and the MP from Ilia, Stefanos Stefanopoulos, two days earlier. Amalia mentioned that, in response to accusations that he was bribed by financial interests to overturn the government, Antonis Samaras had said that he defended "the patriotic character" of the party. She added that, 33 years later, Samaras was presented as "the soul of the party" and threatened, according to her, to oust Konstantinos Mitsotakis' son, Kyriakos, from power through a temporary party that, as she claimed, would bring the left back to power, which she described as bankrupt. In closing, she invoked Marx's saying that history repeats itself first as tragedy and then as farce. #Ελλάδα #πολιτική #ιστορία (translated)

The post stated that Mr. Mitsotakis had said he would step down from the leadership of New Democracy with a percentage of 25%. The author questioned whether the same percentage was considered acceptable for governing Greece, but not for the leadership of the party, and wrote that the political discussion had shifted to an internal party power struggle and the personal political future of the Prime Minister. #πολιτική #ΝΔ #Μητσοτάκης #GR (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)

Dvs Dvs argued that the views of Kostas Karamanlis and Antonis Samaras were not due to political criteria but rather envy. He wrote that Karamanlis had done everything he could to ensure that Tsipras and Kammenos stayed in power longer, while Samaras had bet on the defeat of Kyriakos Mitsotakis. According to him, the two former prime ministers could not accept that Mitsotakis had completed 7.5 years in the premiership with two absolute majorities and was seeking a third term without communicating with them. He predicted that a third absolute majority was likely and used insulting terms for the two men. #πολιτική #Ελλάδα #Καραμανλής (translated)
