[01] Corruption is the most dangerous enemy to Democracy, President
Pavlopoulos says
On the occasion of the International Day against Corruption, the
Greek President Prokopis Pavlopoulos received on Wednesday the head
of Transparency International Greece Konstantinos Bakouros at the
presidential mansion.
Pavlopoulos described corruption as the most dangerous enemy to Democracy,
as apart from the huge devastating economic consequences, it tries to
smash the three pillars of democracy, the three powers -- the legislative,
the executive and the judicial.
"It is time we realized that the fight against corruption and in favor
of transparency is common for all of us. It is a matter of mentality
of a whole society, which we have to consolidate in order to defend our
country," the President noted.
