Zelensky and two Azov fighters speak inside the Greek parliament: One of the most disgraceful moments for the country that suffered most from the nazis

We thought that we had seen the worst with Mitsotakis regime in Greece. Yet, one of the worst Greek governments ever, did the unthinkable inside the Greek parliament. The MPs of the opposition parties caught by surprise when, in his speech, the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky included a video message from two (allegedly Greek-ethnic) fighters from the neo-nazi Azov battalion.

The Speaker of the Parliament, Konstantinos Tasoulas, member of Mitsotakis' New Democracy right-wing party, explained that they learned about the videotaped appearance of the fighters a few minutes before the speech of the Ukrainian President, but without knowing the content of their intervention. He described as “unnecessary and misplaced” the appearance of the two fighters, but stressed that we must stay in the big picture, which is the appearance of Zelensky.

Even if we are to believe Tasoulas' ridiculous excuses, how is it possible for a president of a parliament to let someone speak without his speech being pre-scheduled and without knowing what they are going to say? Zelensky spoke to many other parliaments and nowhere dared to set-up such a disgraceful provocation.

Greece's Communist Party stance to absent from Zelensky's speech from the beginning, completely justified, while the party sharply criticized this unbelievable fiasco:

“Shame! Only this word can describe the current presence, through a teleconference, of the President of Ukraine in the Greek Parliament,” says the publications Radio 902.gr.

“V. Zelensky’s speech turned into a vicious show of money laundering by the reactionary government of Ukraine, in order to sanctify Euro-Atlantic propaganda, portraying even the Nazis as “freedom fighters”.

The masks literally fell off, irreparably exposing the government and other parties involved in this tasteless prank, when, after the Ukrainian president, an “expatriate” who “participates in the defense” of Mariupol through the Nazi “Order of Azov” spoke up“, – emphasized the Greek communists.

The Greek communists, from the very beginning of hostilities in Ukraine, chose anti-war stancedeclaring this war imperialist and blaming the authorities of Ukraine, the USA, NATO and Russia for it.

In total, Zelensky’s speech lasted 15 minutes. At the end of it, Olga Gerovasili, secretary of the SYRIZA-Progressive Alliance party, noted that it was unacceptable to invite members of the Azov Regiment to speak. She stressed that at the meeting of party leaders she would ask the Speaker of Parliament Tasoulas for an explanation as to whether he was informed about this and whether he gave his consent to it.

Yet, this great fiasco sparked a storm of outraged comments in the Greek social media. Many twitter users called Tasoulas to resign. And several SYRIZA supporters were expressed their disappointment for the fact that SYRIZA's MPs had chosen to stay until the end of Zelensky's speech, claiming that the whole team of the party should leave immediately with the video-appearance of Azov nazis.

It would be worth to note that even some of the most conservative pro-Western members of New Democracy expressed their annoyance about the fiasco. Former PM, Antonis Samaras, stated that it was "a big mistake".

Yet, Mitsotakis' Western puppets didn't hesitate to stand up and give a prolonged applause to Zelensky, right after the end of his speech. Apparently, they are so blindly devoted to their US/European bosses that couldn't even realize how disgraceful that moment for the Greek parliament and their country was. And they couldn't imagine the wave of outrage from all political directions and ordinary Greeks it would spark.

April 7, 2022 will be marked as one of the most disgraceful days for the Greek parliament and the country that suffered most from the nazis during WWII. Thanks to one of the worst regimes that the country has seen after the fall of the military junta in 1974.

Will Mamdani manage to liberate New York from brutal neoliberalism?

globinfo freexchange Fifty years ago, New York City was on the verge of collapse . The politicians who run the city had borrowed more and more money from the banks to pay for its growing services and welfare. But in the early 70s, the middle classes fled from the city and the taxes they paid disappeared with them. So, the banks lent the city even more. But then, they began to worry about the size of the growing debt and whether the city would ever be able to pay it back. And then, one day in 1975, the banks just stopped. The city held its regular meeting to issue bonds in return for the loans, overseen by the city's financial controller. The banks were supposed to turn up at 11 a.m., but it soon became clear that none of them were going to appear. The meeting was rescheduled for 2 p.m. and the banks promised they would turn up. What happened that day in New York, marked a radical shift in power. The banks insisted that in order to protect their loans, they sho...

A response to misinformation on Nicaragua: it was a coup, not a ‘massacre’

There is so much misinformation in mainstream corporate media about recent events in Nicaragua that it is a pity that Mary Ellsberg’s article for Pulse has added to it with a seemingly leftish critique. Ellsberg claims that recent articles, including from this website, often “ paint a picture of the crisis in Nicaragua that is dangerously misleading. ” Unfortunately, her own article does just that. It looks at the situation entirely from the perspective of those opposing Daniel Ortega’s government while whitewashing their malevolent behavior and downplaying the levels of US support they have relied on. Her piece is an incomplete depiction of what is happening on the ground, ignoring many salient facts that have come to light and which have been outdated by recent events. The following is a brief response to Ellsberg’s main points from someone who lives in Nicaragua and has observed the situation directly and intimately: https://grayzoneproject.com/2018/08/15/a-res...

Trump Welcomes Syrian Leader & “REFORMED” TERRORIST To White House!

The Jimmy Dore Show President Donald Trump is planning a White House welcome for Syria’s new president, former al-Qaeda in Iraq leader Ahmed al-Sharaa, who was installed after the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad. Jimmy Dore argues that the U.S. and its allies, including Israel, have long funded extremist groups such as ISIS and al-Qaeda to serve foreign policy interests in the Middle East, so the embrace of al-Sharaa makes sense, even if it might confuse anyone who thought we took seriously the so-called “War on Terror.” He and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger contrast Trump’s willingness to meet with alleged terrorists to his refusal to engage in dialogue with leaders like Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro, accusing U.S. policy of hypocrisy and imperialism.

Zionists’ LONG HISTORY Of False Flags & STAGED Attacks!

The Jimmy Dore Show In recent years several alleged anti-Semitic incidents, including graffiti and vandalism, were later revealed to have been staged or “false flag” operations carried out by Jewish perpetrators to create sympathy or shift the public narrative in Israel’s favor. Jimmy Dore presents investigations that revealed hoaxes and uses them to argue that media and political institutions exploit victimhood to silence criticism of Israel. He then expands the discussion to accuse Israeli and Zionist figures of deceit in global politics and misinformation about Gaza. It ends with commentary that the term “anti‑Semitic” has lost meaning due to its politicization and misuse.

Priceless: Zelensky told the truth about the war in Ukraine at its beginning!

globinfo freexchange How did this escape the radars of mainstream media? Well, the answer is obvious, yet still, it is astonishing the fact that already back in 2022, at the beginning of the war in Ukraine, one of the major outlets of Western imperialism, actually translated this part of the interview with West's puppet, Volodymyr Zelensky. At 12:28 of the video, Zelensky starts spelling the truth about the real reason behind the war in Ukraine! Zelensky admits: There are those in the West who don't mind a long war because it would mean exhausting Russia, even if this means the demise of Ukraine and the cost of Ukrainian lives. This is definitely in the interest of some countries. For other countries, it would be better if the war ended quickly because Russia's market is big one that their economies are su...
