European Commission hypocrisy proved

“A document brought to light today exclusively by ThePressProject shows that the European Commission is playing a game with the Greek banks by asking its executive bodies that beneficiaries (especially of the National Strategic Reference Framework/NSRF and those on the payroll of EU agencies) not be paid before first communicating with them. It of course urges those bodies to indicate other means of payment such that money does not enter into Greece.”

“The document that we are presenting is an internal email held on an internal server of the European Commission; the email reached our hands from Brussels. The message was forwarded to the Helpdesk of the DG-BUGD (Directorate General for the Budget) of the European Commission and in it instructions are given for payments into bank accounts held in Greece.”

“But still more shockingly, according to this piece of information, the General Accounting Office of the European Union approves in principle the payment of sums into other bank accounts, i.e. accounts held outside of Greece. This amounts to an unprecedented bolstering of tax evasion, as the EU is showing itself willing to send NSRF monies and wages of Greek beneficiaries to banks outside of Greece. Thus the European Commission, at the same moment that it is presumably worrying about the liquidity of the Greek banks, is depriving those banks of milions of euros which could be helping milions of Greek citizens who are being forced by the ECB’s decision to stand in lines to withdraw 50€ a day.”
