Lies of the Minister of Migration: “The Thessaloniki metro is up and running”


Greek Migration Minister Notis Mitarakis said in an interview with the British BBC that “the new metro in Thessaloniki is up and running.” Looks like it’s a habit…

In an interview with the BBC for the Hardtalk program, Mitarakis was invited to speak about the railway disaster in Tempi February 28however, he preferred to talk about the achievements of the conservative government of Mitsotakis, skillfully switching from the topic of problems to the topic of achievements.

His statements about the subway came after he mentioned all the other infrastructures – except, of course, the railroad, which the government tried to secure at a high level before the Tempi disaster.

“And since you mentioned starting a public infrastructure program, you should know that the airline has been privatized and is doing great, there has been a lot of investment in highways and we now have great highways, the metro in Athens has been upgraded, the new metro in Thessaloniki is up and running.” he said without even blinking, an obvious lie.

As long as the metro in Thessaloniki exists and operates, the telematics center for the railways of northern Greece exists and operates, which Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis would have opened if reality had not confronted his own lies in the most tragic way.

Apparently, the minister knows something about the metro that no one in the city in northern Greece knows. Unless “ND” will hide the subway in a secret telematics center of the railways of northern Greecewhich Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis was supposed to visit and open on March 1, but train collision at Tempi foiled his plans.

In the meantime, to understand the situation with the metro in Thessaloniki, the longest long-term construction in the history of the country, it is enough to look at three pictures and understand that, as they say, “there was no horse lying there.”

As reported by Athens News February 14, 2023, the metro in Thessaloniki will be presented to residents and guests of the capital at the end of 2023. How much will this transfer be?
