Chris Avramidis wrote that Thanasis Papakonstantinou performed "The Mines" in front of 20,000 people in Chalkidiki, who were shouting against the mines and environmental destruction. He described the night as a source of strength for many people. Avramidis mentioned that Eldorado had won a battle using police batons, but he argued that the gathering showed that nothing was over and that the multinational could not operate unhindered, despite the strong support it had. He added that, in his opinion, no violation or workplace accident would remain hidden. #antireport #skouries #Χαλκιδική #Περιβάλλον #ΕνάντιαΣταΟρυχεία (translated)

Adonis Georgiadis requested an end to populism in the related discussion, which he characterized as erroneous. He argued that only one unit, Ptolemaida V, was new and could continue to operate. He wrote that most units had closed due to age and were not allowed to operate, while the others had a few years of life left and would require enormous, unprofitable investments for safe operation. He added that the cost of CO₂ had not been taken into account. #λαϊκισμός #ενέργεια #περιβάλλον (translated)

Adonis Georgiadis stated that Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis inaugurated the investment of Eldorado Gold in Skouries, Halkidiki, after years of work, skepticism, delays, and criticism from the Left. He assessed it at 2 billion dollars and described it as the largest and environmentally completely safe copper and gold mine in Europe. Georgiadis argued that the local community now fully supports the investment, which, he said, has created jobs for everyone there. He added that concerns about impacts on tourism were proven to be unfounded, while the Municipality of Aristotelis will receive tens of millions of euros and Greece billions over time. He characterized it as the largest foreign investment in the country and expressed pride in his contribution, thanking those who publicly recognized his work. #επένδυση #Χαλκιδική #ανάπτυξη (translated)

Chris Avramidis mentioned that in a few days there would be a large solidarity concert in Halkidiki for a person facing serious health problems and, as he wrote, had refused money from Eldorado. He said that the event could also give a new boost to a movement that, according to him, had suffered persecution, repression, and imprisonments. He reminded of incidents of night police raids on homes and arrests in front of families. Avramidis linked the concert to a similar event against gold mining that had taken place 12 years earlier with almost the same people. He referred to an earlier interview he had with Thanasis Papakonstantinou, who, as he described, had spoken about the protection of the Earth, the relationship of the inner world with the environment and other people, as well as the role of the artist. According to Avramidis, Papakonstantinou had dedicated a song to Eldorado. He said that he had condensed the interview into a short video and that the full version included, among other things, Papakonstantinou's criticism of communist ideology and its approach to the environment, as well as references to previous statements by Antonis Remos in support of Antonis Samaras. He added that the musician had satirized the then-prime minister. The concert, which according to the post would take place on Friday in Ierissos, would feature Thanasis Papakonstantinou, Giannis Aggelakas, Pavlos Pavlidis, Irini Skylakaki, Giannis Charoulis, Natassa Bofiliou, Dimitris (Chaineis) Apostolakis, Social Waste, Dimitris Mystakidis, Matoula Zamani, and Andriana Achitzanova. Avramidis mentioned that Pavlos Aslanidis, president of the association of victims' relatives from the Tempe disaster, and Kyriakos Panagiotopoulos, emeritus professor of Soil Science at Aristotle University, would speak at the event. He also stated that local residents had invited him to participate and coordinate the event, while expressing his determination not to back down against authority. #antireport #skouries #συναυλία #αλληλεγγύη #Χαλκιδική (translated)
