This decision of Minister Oikonomos to end cooperation with his director comes a day after a report by omvia tv linked the director’s company to companies allegedly involved in a case of money laundering originating from a trafficking ring.
“I will not allow shadows to exist for any reason, nor to undermine the continuous work that is done transparently, nor to disorient public opinion from our constant battle to improve the daily lives of citizens”, Oikonomou said.
