By Anastassios D. Retzios,
The Greek mass media and press, almost in their totality, ignored the most important piece of news last week. In fact, it is the most important news of the year. It was announced last week that Marteen Werwey would lead the EU team that would oversee the Greek government at Athens. The communique stated simply that he would have a direct line to the office of the prime-minister, but since the Greek prime minister is bound to agree (without equivocation or possibility of an appeal) with whatever Marteen Werwey says, dear Mr. Werwey is the real governor of Greece. No ifs or buts. He rules the place. Have you voted for him? Of course not! Because there is not real democracy in Greece. The elections are just the medium required to produce a majority in the parliament that would facilitate the governance of this territory (no longer a state) by Marteen Werwey.
