A second blow against the government within 24 hours, and indeed on the very day of ND’s birthday anniversary, was delivered by Antonis Samaras via the internet.
After the sharp criticism regarding our national issues, the former prime minister, with a video he posted on social media, through a dialogue with the director of his press office, Nikos Tsoutsias, attacked the government, among other things, over the behavior of its officials and the… cover-up.
The characteristic dialogue follows:
N. Tsoutsias: President, I’m leaving.
A. Samaras: Hey, where are you off to?
N. Tsoutsias: I’m going to shut down the party.
A. Samaras: Which party?
N. Tsoutsias: Don’t you read the Mitsotakis-aligned newspapers? They write, they say, that you will form a party and then shut it down, as long as Mitsotakis and his arrogant ministers lose their seats.
A. Samaras: Is that what they write? I don’t care who will lose their seat. The only thing I care about is that Greece should not lose.
N. Tsoutsias: In any case, I will eventually leave because I’m going to see on the road how many cars are circulating. Because as the government said, if cars are circulating on the roads, there is no high cost of living and everything is going well. So they won’t call us poor wretches either, as Theoharis also says.
A. Samaras: Are they that provocative, huh? You know what, they were swept away by the… River. And you know something else? This time they won’t even be able to cover it up.
