A new start for the Committee on the Greek Public Debt

Thirteen MEPs of the Left and the Greens signed in Brussels a support text for the continuation of the Truth Committee's work on the Greek Public Debt, which was set up last year by the former Speaker of the Hellenic Parliament, Zoe Konstantopoulou.

The signing of the text was made on the occasion of the manifestation of the European Left Group (GUE / NLG) in the European Parliament, attended by more than 120 people, in which the hitherto work of the Committee was presented. As characteristically been said by the coordinator of the Truth Committee's work, Éric Toussaint, who was speaker at one of the two panels of the conference: "I have rarely seen this room so crowded."

In the support text it is noted that “recognizing its valuable contribution and confirming that the audit of public debt serve a fundamental sovereign right of peoples, which should be followed and respected by all governments and authorities-institutions, we support the continuation of work of the Greek Public Debt Truth Committee.
