[01] PASOK leader visits Lesvos
Main opposition Panhellenic Socialist Movement (PASOK) leader George
Papandreou visited the Aegean island of Lesvos on Wednesday where he
met with the party's candidate for prefect, Fraglinos Papadelis.
Papandreou also met the party's mayoral candidate Thanassis Yiakalis.
In a statement, Papandreou said "the message that is coming from all
the corners of Greece is that the people ask for a just society with
worthy individuals, against a government which in only two-and-a-half
years has shown that it is a government of arbitrariness and
indifference."
The PASOK leader said that the government "is organising everything in
all sectors for its own people and its own interests." He criticised
Prime Minister Costas Karamanlis that "he is hiding the truth and is
hiding behind reality."
The local government elections will be held on October 15.
