7 January 2008-Liberal Alliance Press Release

Liberal Alliance notified by letter the attorney of the Hellenic Supreme Court (Areios Pagos), the information that is in its possession regarding the legal inquiries carried out by the German Authorities investigating the press stories according which, Siemens bribed Greek officials, members of the main parties and managers of OTE (the Greek Telecommunications Organisation).

According to this information SIEMENS was consistently and covertly supporting financially both PASOK and New Democracy 'in order to ensure that it will be favored constantly by the government whichever party was in power'.
