ATHENS – “Μr. Mitsotakis is the head of the National Intelligence Service (EYP), he is the person who changed the law in order to appoint someone without any qualifications to the intelligence service, he is the person who in 48 hours has made no response regarding the surveillance of the leader of third-largest party in parliament. This is really frightening,” stated main opposition SYRIZA-Progressive Alliance spokesperson Nassos Iliopoulos to the radio “Sto Kokkino on Thursday.

“We support the request to convene the Institutions and Transparency Committee on the phone tapping issue but this is not enough. Answers should be given regarding the ‘Predator’ software, which of course we do not expect from Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis – who is responsible for violating the rule of law in Greece. The only thing we expect of this governent is that it leave so the country can breathe,” Iliopoulos said.
