The statement by the respected journalist Aris Portosalte,<\/b> who commented on the statements made by Nikos Androulakis <\/b>regarding the cartels that, as the opposition claims, influence the market and reinforce high prices. <\/p>\n

The journalist wondered what exactly PASOK is proposing to <\/b>address<\/b> the problem<\/b>, noting that references to \u201ccartels\u201d remain vague when not accompanied by specific evidence. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhat will Androulakis do about the cartels? First of all, he needs to name them, because he says that cartels are running the government. Which cartels are they?\u201d he remarked pointedly. <\/p>\n

Aris Portosalte: \u201cThe opposition is spouting nonsense\u201d <\/h2>\n

Continuing his criticism, Aris Portosalte argued that public debate cannot be limited to general accusations without specific policy proposals. <\/p>\n

\u201cMr. Androulakis, what will you do to tackle these specific cartels, once you\u2019ve named them? In general and vague terms\u2014\u2018we have cartels, we have powerful interests, we have this and that\u2019\u2014the opposition will just be spouting nonsense,\u201d he said, escalating the political confrontation. <\/p>\n

Portosalte: \u201cWhat will Androulakis do about the cartels? First of all, he needs to name them, because he says that cartels are running the government. So which cartels are they, Mr. Androulakis? And what will you do to tackle these specific cartels once you\u2019ve identified them\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/2RmIyxDDox <\/p>\n
