A nascent "feud" between the international consortium that's won a concession for the massive Helleniko property development in southeast Athens and the outgoing Tsipras government, given that the privatization remains mired in Greece's ubiquitous "red tape", surfaced anew this week - less than two weeks before a general election.

Only a few hours after the investor's move to freeze the Skouries project, and the investor in the Hellinikon Project, Lamda Development, in an official announcement sounded the alarm for the future of this emblematic investment, mentioned in the MoUs with the country's lenders.

Lamda Development, who has secured development of the former Athens Airport, countered Productive Reconstruction and Environment Minister Panayiotis Lafazanis' comments on the issue.
