1/ AMNA, the 🇬🇷state-owned news agency, has a unique ability to make events go unreported – and therefore effectively not to have happened.
Its role is crucial because the business model of *hundreds* of 🇬🇷 websites is based solely on the reproduction of its alerts.

2/ As months-long, well-documented investigations on the #pushbacks of asylum-seekers were published by credible foreign media, AMNA maintained silence.

3/ ... publish short articles praising the beaches of a 🇬🇷 island - these are often grounds for an alert that is then republished on hundreds of websites.

The electoral law in #Greece & why changing it (again!) now would be another hit to the already suffering #democracy 🧵
Greece does not have a stable electoral system enshrined in its constitution. This means that electoral laws can & do change from time to time. 1/

Since the 1974 restoration of democracy, Greece has mostly used a so-called ‘reinforced proportionality’ system that is proportional only in name, as it tends to disproportionately benefit the largest party & excludes smaller ones due to a 3% threshold for entering parliament. 2/
The long-established parties of the post-authoritarian era (ND & PASOK) have historically tended to tweak or change the electoral law with the aim to undermine opponents & benefit themselves. 3/

#Draghi: "Oggi è la Giornata delle vittime del Covid: voglio ricordare tutte le persone che sono morte durante la pandemia, quelle che ancora soffrono per le conseguenze della malattia e i loro cari. A voi tutti la vicinanza del governo e la mia personale".
#Draghi: "La presenza dei premier di Spagna, Portogallo e Grecia è la conferma della grande amicizia tra i nostri Paesi".
Es ist unglaublich wie sehr sich die Situation verschlechtert hat, für people on the move, Einwohnenden und Volunteers. Ein Bericht von Bewohner:innen #Lesvos über die Terrorherrschaft der Regierung #Mitsotakis ⬇️

1 Bewohner von Mytilini: "Die Rückführung wurde von Sicherheitskräften vorgenommen - Wir haben Angst, den Flüchtlingen Decken zu geben"
2 Wir haben viele Flüchtlinge gerettet.
Heute trauen wir uns nicht einmal, eine Decke zu geben, sie werden uns für Menschenhändler und Spione halten.

PM #Mitsotakis and French President #Macron announce #Belharra frigates deal
#Greece and France, said the Prime Minister, are today taking the first step towards European defence independence.
French defense and foreign ministers Florence Parly and Jean-Yves Le Drian, and Greek Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias were also part of the signing.
The deal foresees the purchase by Greece of three French-built, state-of-the-art frigates, with the option of a fourth, and a delivery date of between 2025 and 2026.
The Greek conservative government of Kyriakos #Mitsotakis has managed the 1st wave of #pandemic efficiently, however, its policies have been erratic, inconsistent, or even straight catastrophic since. The latest story revealed by @EFSYNTAKTON today is truly hard to believe. 1/
As documented in the relevant report, in October 2020 & with Greece seeing the rise of a devastating 2nd wave of the pandemic, 4 persons from the Fenerbahçe entourage were let through, even though they had fever & were thus suspect of carrying #COVID19 efsyn.gr/politiki/30141… 2/
The dialog between the officer on the ground & the person in charge from Civil Protection is revealing:
"- 4 persons from Fenerbahçe's entourage have fever
- Let the team through
- Are you sure?
- Chardalias' orders, get on with it, in the Pakistani number" 3/

So, is #New_Democracy govt driving #Greece towards democratic backsliding? Today after we witnessed yesterday's disgraceful images of #police brutally attacking & arresting protesting students inside the country’s biggest university is a sadly fitting day to pose the question. 1/
Greek PM #Mitsotakis violated again (!) the #COVID19 rules. He visited Ikaria island, where he participated at a big gathering at the house of a local MP with 30 other people, breaking the rules against household mixing, social distancing & mask-wearing. thenationalherald.com/greece_politic…
The incident is truly shocking & was reported on the very same day that the #Mitsotakis government put around half of Greece under tighter lockdown measures, with curfews starting as early as 18:00.
The government's tight control over public & private #media resulted in the effective 'burying' of the story. This would have made headlines in most European countries. This is indicative of the worrying decline of public scrutiny & contestation in the country under this govt.

Elezioni #Grecia, avviso ai populisti italiani e di tutto il mondo: il popolo è pronto a vendicarsi di #Tsipras, il leader di #Syriza che promise questo mondo e quell'altro. Per poi consegnare il suo paese alla Troika

@finanza_com @pelias01 @Miti_Vigliero @ricpuglisi @carloalberto @MaurilioVitto @EugenioCardi @AlienoGentile @albertobisin 2/Ai greci importa poco che tassi a 10 anni siano scesi in misura significativa a partire dal 2015, da quando #Tsipras è diventato premier. I tassi oscillano oggi appena sopra 2%, rispetto al 3,5% di due mesi fa. All'apice della crisi, erano volati al 44%.
