EDITORIAL
Indifference or negligence?
As we speak, German company Siemens, a major American law firm (which conducted an investigation for Siemens), and the German and American justice systems have evidence of a major bribery scandal involving Greek government and state officials. The only people who seem to be entirely in the dark about this extremely important case are the Greek government and the country's judiciary.
COMMENTARY
No party without barbarians
Evangelos Venizelos's announcement scrapping the idea of a think tank within the PASOK party did, on one level, add to George Papandreou's leadership profile, but it also deprived the party chief of a good excuse. In the words of C.P. Cavafy: «And now what shall become of us without any barbarians? Those people were some kind of solution.»
