Amalia presented a highly classified British report titled "Greek Security Battalions," numbered PIC/263/21 and PIC PAPER No 55, which, according to her, was sent to the Allied headquarters in the Middle East by an officer signing as "Colonel Chris" on July 18, 1944. Amalia assessed that the author was likely Chris Woodhouse. According to her presentation, the report stated that few Greeks willingly collaborated with the occupying forces and that their motivations were primarily self-interest, survival, or ambition. It also noted that, despite the impending departure of the Germans, the Security Battalions were reinforced after spring 1944, and their clashes with ELAS became more intense. Amalia interpreted this point as an indication that the Battalions aimed to prevent the communists from prevailing after the Germans' withdrawal. The report, as she described it, categorized the members of the Battalions into poor individuals who enlisted for survival, criminal elements, volunteers antagonistic to EAM/ELAS, anti-communist officers, and members of other organizations that had been attacked by ELAS. As an example, she mentioned 200 members of EKKA who joined the Battalions in Patras after the disbandment of the 5/42 Regiment in April 1944. Amalia stated that the author of the report negatively assessed the military actions of the Battalions, as they participated in German attacks against ELAS, but considered that some of their officers were capable. Politically, the report presented them as useful to some of the Greeks because they hindered the dominance of EAM and described three options for the Cairo government: support for EAM/ELAS, tacit support for the Battalions, or condemnation of both sides. The third option, according to Amalia, was considered to have the greatest likelihood of uniting moderate forces. The report concluded, as she wrote, that the actions of the Battalions and of EAM/ELAS were equally terroristic. #ΤάγματαΑσφαλείας #Ελλάδα #Ιστορία (translated)

Nikos Appelaios II posted statements in which Greece was described as an essential ally of NATO and a pillar of stability and American presence in the region. The text also mentioned that the cooperation between Greece and the USA extended to defense, trade, investments, and energy. The statements tied the Vertical Corridor to Greece's emergence as an energy hub and the increase of US LNG exports to Europe. Chevron and ExxonMobil were presented as signs of American companies’ confidence in Greece, and there was a reference to the economic declaration of the two countries for creating a secure energy supply chain and critical minerals. In response to a question about US support for energy projects, the speaker stated, according to the post, that there was a strong commitment to cooperation with Greece. He linked energy security to national security and said that events in Iran highlighted the need to diversify energy sources. He added that some projects concerned sensitive issues and other countries, which might be better addressed through private initiative or in specific forums. #Ελλάδα #ΗΠΑ #ΕνεργειακήΑσφάλεια (translated)

Thanos Tzimeros criticized a university professor and writer, whom he described as leftist, a supporter of Mamdani and a fan of Bernie Sanders, as well as a critic of the rise of the far right in Europe. He mentioned that she had attributed the responsibility for the 1897 war to King Otto and had characterized the conflict as Greece's biggest national own goal. Tzimeros argued that Otto had died 30 years before the war and had left Greece five years earlier. He also criticized the way the professor had described the king, noting that the Greco-Turkish War of 1922 was not referred to as a greater national mistake. He added that she was now an emeritus professor and was receiving a pension. https://t.co/2utOlrUD8S #πολιτική #ιστορία #εκπαίδευση (translated)

Amalia wrote that a recent report by the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the heroization of Nazism and racism included a separate chapter on Greece. She stated that her post was not addressed to the Left and argued that some leftists supported Vladimir Putin's regime in the hope of reviving the USSR, which she considered unlikely. At the same time, she criticized those who identified as right-wing and, according to her, idealized Russia as a country of traditional values, opposed to irregular migration and globalization, and friendly to Greece due to Orthodoxy. According to the excerpts of the report she provided, the Russian ministry accused Greece of not recognizing a Turkish national minority in Thrace, but only a Muslim one, which included Turks, Pomaks, and Roma, totaling over 120,000 people. The report allegedly also mentioned restrictions on the use of the term "Turkish" by associations, state appointment of muftis, and concerns of the UN Committee on Racial Discrimination regarding the self-determination rights of the community. Regarding Kos and Rhodes, according to Amalia, the report claimed that Muslims were not recognized as a minority and did not have Turkish-speaking schools. Amalia also stated that the report accused Greece of poor reception and detention conditions for refugees, illegal returns of asylum seekers to Turkey, and pushback operations. According to her, it also compared the treatment of refugees from the Middle East and North Africa with the hosting of 23,800 Ukrainians. Finally, she wrote that the report charged Greece with not having ratified the framework convention for national minorities, the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages, and the international convention on the rights of migrant workers and their families. #Ελλάδα #Ρωσία #ΥπουργείοΕξωτερικών (translated)

We persisted. We pressured. We were vindicated. When we asked for 120 installments to give citizens some relief, the government said it wasn't possible. Today, it announces what it dismissed until yesterday. For me, the vindication of PASOK is valuable because it gives hope to the person drowning in debt. https://t.co/I5lM7MJjle #Δικαιώση #Πολιτική #Ελπίδα #GR (translated)
