The lack of the rule of law, reinforces violence and lack of accountability by the State

Liberal Alliance press release 7 December 2008

Within a few hours, two fundamental human rights, were violated by State Agents, in the harshest way. Once more, the Greek Police, attempted to cover its incompetence by turning the citizens against each other.
The only responsible party for the loss of life of the 16 year old young man, and the destruction of the shops and cars of our fellow citizens, is the Greek Police, that in the absence of the rule of law, is functioning by promoting state violence and leaving bands of people that destroy public and private property, with uncontrollable eruptions of violence.

Liberal Alliance (Greek Liberals) calls on Greek citizens to react against a State that cannot, protect the inalienable human rights, and the State's attempt to hide its incompetence by dividing Greek Society.

Liberal Alliance supports the legalization of co-habitation agreements- but without any discrimination

15.03.08-Liberal Alliance Press Release

Liberal Alliance supports the normalization of couples who do not wish to be married with the Co-habitation Agreements currently proposed by the Greek government.
Liberal Alliance also expresses its satisfaction, to the comments made by Archibishop that he does not wish to interfere with matters other than the spiritual work of the Church, thus maintaining a stature of prudence and calm.

However Liberal Alliance is against the Justice Minister's proposals not to include same-sex couples to the new Co-habitation Agreements.
Should these proposals be confirmed, they would construe a violation of basic human rights as well a violation of the Constitution which states that all Greek Citizens are equal before the law, and they (the proposals) would introduce an unacceptable discrimination based on sexual orientation.

Liberal Alliance clearly proposes on its manifesto, the recognition and legal registration of the couples (heterosexual and homosexual) that choose not to marry but to live permanently together.

According to Liberal Alliance sources, soon the first civil union of a same-sex couple will take place the coming week. Liberal Alliance will consider any action to obstruct this civil union as illegal, particularly since the law does not prohibit the ceremony for same -sex couples.
Liberal Alliance, consistent with its principles, will be at the side of anyone who fights for the abolition of discrimination against our fellow citizens and will provide, in the future, full political support to any citizens who will want to make use of the new Agreements, irrespective of their sexual orientation.
