The statement of the ND MP has caused a stir Makariou Lazaridis on a television show Friday morning, where he bluntly asserted that the bulldozing at the Tempe train collision site was because “the cranes had to go because there were still voices.”
The shocking statement of Makarios Lazaridis provoked a strong reaction from SYRIZA, which in a statement this morning emphasized: “There were, in other words, six days later survivors under the wagons?” Were there really, so many days after the accident, victims cheering and calling for help? Or does Mr. Lazaridis go so far as to formulate such a macabre lie to justify the unjustifiable?”
However, instead of reconstructing or clarifying what he meant, speaking later that day to the Attica TV station and the journalist Giorgos Houdalakis, he essentially refused to answer, referring to SYRIZA’s fake news. In fact, he clashed strongly with the reporter who persisted in his question about whether there were indeed survivors under the wreckage of the trains even six days after the crash, saying that he would answer as he wanted, going so far as to attempt to divert the conversation even in the matter of the companies of SYRIZA president Stefanos Kasselakis.
When he received even more intense press pressure, Makarios Lazaridis, insisting on the tactic of not answering and saying that he never said such a thing.
See the relevant excerpt:
The reaction of Dora Avgeri, who was a guest on the same show a little later, was strong. Commenting on the attitude of Makarios Lazaridis, Dora Avgeri played the disputed passage on her mobile phone and stuck it on her microphone so that the viewers could hear that what the ND MP had claimed a while ago that he never said, had been said precisely.
