24.06.09 - 23:25 GREEK SABOTAGE - EY SOLIDARITY

The Greek Post Office sabotaged the election campaign of the party of the Macedonian minority in Greece EFA-Rainbow (Vinozito) for the European elections, the party says in a statement.

In order to fill the “void” resulting from the Greek media blackout of EFA-Rainbow’s election campaign, in the weeks leading up to the European elections of 7 June 2009, the party mailed out promotional material to voters in Northern Greece.
The material was sent via the state-owned “Hellenic Post” and included a letter, a DVD and ballot papers,

The party was informed by the Florina/Lerin office of “Hellenic Post” that there was a package waiting to be picked up in the name of EFA-Rainbow (Vinozito).
And, that the package was a sack of letters that had not been delivered. The letters included bundles of letters sent to whole villages that had been returned to the Post Office.

EFA-Rainbow condemns this interference by “Hellenic Post” in the election campaign.
