[01] Commission spox welcomes launch of ANA-MPA's new website,
'Praktorio EU'
ANA-MPA is launching a new webpage on Wednesday called "Praktorio EU",
which will focus and highlight Europe's political, economic, social
and cultural issues, at a time which is viewed as a turning point
for the very identity of the European Union and the progress of the
European idea.
Noting the need for responsible and objective information, the Chief
Spokesperson of the European Commission, Margaritis Schinas, welcomed
ANA-MPA's new venture. "The launch of ANA-MPA's website "Praktorio EU" is
an apt initiative which I warmly welcome," Schinas told the news agency.
"I am sure the reliable and wide-angle view of the agency's journalists
throughout Europe will further highlight the Europe we need, the Europe
that concerns us, the Europe we chose to belong to," he added.
The webpage is http://www.amna.gr/eu/
[02] Police clashes with refugees in Idomeni, fires teargas
Greek police fired teargas and stun grenades to a group of about 300
refugees and migrants in the makeshift camp of Idomeni in northern
Greece on Wednesday evening, after the latter started pushing an
abandoned train wagon towards them.
Police initially managed to stop the group from moving forward but after
a while the refugees regrouped and continued pushing the train wagon
and throwing stones against them.
