[01] Chryssi Avgi should be treated as criminal organization, Venizelos
says
ANA-MPA -- The first step is to apply the existing legislation for the
acts committed, government Vice-President and PASOK leader Evangelos
Venizelos on Wednesday said, referring to extreme-right Chryssi Avgi
party.
Speaking to reporters after a meeting with Prime Minister Antonis Samaras,
Venizelos said that the existing legislation is very strict and that
certain additions will be made. He noted that "they have crossed the
line" and added that the law will have to be applied, underlining that
Chryssi Avgi should be treated like a criminal organization.
He said that "there are many who cultivate tension, invest in a strategy
of violence and have violence as a priority," noting that those who
foster the strategy of tension should be seen separately from those who
commit crimes.
Venizelos underlined that those who foster the strategy of tension and
expect to capitalize on it should understand that they are being led to
the absolute dead end, adding that those who commit violent acts should
be faced with the justice system.
Venizelos responded positively when he was asked if he means SYRIZA when
he talks about those who foster the strategy of tension.
