Issue of ASW aircraft refurbishment taken to parliament
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
To Potami party is bringing the issue of the direct award amounting to $ 500 million for the reconstruction of five old aircraft, for anti-submarine defense of the country to parliament.
PASOK also lashed out with harsh statement against the coalition government of SYRIZA-ANEL.
Members of To Potami Spyros Danellis and Grigoris Psarianos with a question tabled in parliament invite ministers of defense and finance Panos Kammenos and Yanis Varoufakis respectively to answer a number of legitimate questions as to what extent the country can allocate amid escalating financial crisis funds of this size, and whether the anti-submarine defense of Greece is the main question to be resolved in our defense policy.
The funds have to do with refurbishing five P-3B Orion aircraft, grounded since 2009.
