Greece's prosecutors and tackling corruption in Greece- 2013-2015

10/07/2013

A new turn in Greece in 2013-2014 as prosecutors independent of political leaders and the government take up corruption cases in Greece. For decades corruption in the political elite has not been tackled. A executive of Post Hellenic Bank, who recklessly approved $700 million in loans, is one of the business leaders being prosecuted. As austerity measures affect all classes of society the government has less authority or inclination to intervene. Prosecutors are acting independently as a parallel authority with public support.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
