N. Androulakis: Immediately set up an inquiry committee for monitoring

Nikos Androulakis requested that the Parliament set up an Inquiry Committee on the issue of his monitoring, in his statement in the wake of the resignations of Dimitriadis and Kontoleon, firing shots at the Government.

“It is unacceptable, in a European democracy, for it to be revealed that apart from the attempt to trap my mobile phone with the Predator in September 2021, after the announcement of my candidacy, today we learn that the EYP, which reports directly to the Prime Minister, proceeded to following me, during the internal election process for the leadership of PASOK,” said the president of PASOK in his statement.

“I never expected the Greek Government to follow me with the darkest practices. All this proves that Mr. Mitsotakis and his government are exposing the country internationally. The Hellenic Parliament must proceed immediately to form an inquiry committee to investigate political responsibilities ” Mr. Androulakis added.

The statement in detail:

“10 days ago I filed a complaint with the Prosecutor of the Supreme Court for the attempted interception of my mobile phone according to the documents of the competent service of the European Parliament.

All these days the government and Maximou have systematically tried to downplay the issue with loads of publications and fake news even from the Government Spokesperson.

Today, after all this, the prime minister’s closest associate, as well as the Governor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, resigns.

The veil of silence and discredit with which they tried to cover such a serious case is collapsing.

It is unacceptable, in a European democracy, for it to be revealed that apart from the attempt to trap my mobile phone with the Predator in September 2021, after the announcement of my candidacy, today we learn that the EYP, which reports directly to the Prime Minister, proceeded to monitor during the internal election process for the leadership of PASOK.

Is all this a coincidence, Mr. Mitsotakis?

For 8 years in the European Parliament I fought with all my strength for the national interests of our country.

I never expected the Greek Government to follow me with the darkest practices.

All this proves that Mr. Mitsotakis and his government are exposing the country internationally. The Hellenic Parliament must proceed immediately with the establishment of a commission of inquiry to investigate political responsibilities.

I will not allow anyone to instrumentalize this major issue that affects the core of the functioning of institutions and democracy in our country. It is our democratic duty to protect the human rights and freedoms of Greek citizens

Today is the hour of truth for those whose arrogance and sense of impunity makes them capable of anything.”
