Government Criticizes Androulakis Over Tempi Allegations: Misusing Tragedy

The government has strongly criticized Nikos Androulakis for his accusations against them during a televised interview on Thursday, February 13, 2025. Government sources expressed disbelief that the leader of the official opposition would question the justice system while simultaneously portraying himself as a judge, making unfounded allegations about the tragic multi-fatality accident in Tempi. The President of PASOK accused the Prime Minister of orchestrating a cover-up of the incident. Government officials stated, “We had hoped that Mr. Androulakis’s second term as PASOK president would be different. Unfortunately, it proves that things can always get worse.” They emphasized that Androulakis undermines trust in the justice system and handles historical issues like non-state universities in a petty manner. The government accuses PASOK and its leader of embracing populism and toxicity. In contrast, the government vows to uphold the institutions and democracy, affirming their duty to protect all citizens.
