EDITORIAL

Let’s hold ministers to account Justice has a duty to be consistent no matter who or what it is dealing with, even when it comes to politicians. That is why the majority of Greeks are praising the intervention of the unions representing judges and lawyers yesterday, with which they have demanded that the law concerning the conduct of government ministers be radically reviewed and changed.

EDITORIAL:AthensPlus

At last, elections It has become a cliche that the whole world is watching the US presidential election as if it concerned the leader of the whole planet. Whoever is elected on Tuesday will have George W. Bush to thank for that - not any of the presidents of the «Free World» of the previous decades. The 43rd president managed to make such a mess of the planet in the eyes of so many that his successor inherits the task (and embodies the world's hopes) of guiding the Earth toward a better direction. By default, the American president will now be the global leader.
