PASOK Slams Minister Skertso's Post as 'Repugnant,' Saying It Offends Even Ruling Party MPs

The Greek political landscape is marked by sharp exchanges, with the PASOK party strongly condemning a social media post by Minister of State Akis Skertso. PASOK described Skertso's stance as 'repugnant,' asserting that it elicits disgust even among members of the ruling New Democracy party.

Skertso's post, shared on social media, accused the opposition, specifically referencing Charilaou Trikoupi (PASOK's headquarters) and the Hellenic Police (ELAS), of 'superficiality.' He alleged that the opposition substitutes economic shallowness with political propaganda.

In response, PASOK argued that Skertso's comments demonstrate a lack of respect and understanding. The party emphasized that such rhetoric is not only offensive to the public but also creates internal friction within the government coalition. The exchange highlights the deep political divisions and the often-heated nature of political discourse in Greece.
