The Minister stressed that great legal abilities to fight an organized international crime were needed but justice would have to contribute to the clarification of the case as far as possible.
According to him, the "black money" traffic was very fast and that’s why it was difficult to establish the amounts, but that did not mean that the state should stop searching.
Haris Pampoukis also noted that the assistance of other countries was needed in such cases. As for the funds of the Greek parties, for which there was information that they had received money from Siemens, the government minister called for publication of data but at the same time stressed that "the truth is more complicated."
In conclusion, the State Minister said that the Greek government should create mechanisms to prevent future cases similar to the Siemens’ one.
The government considers through the letter of the State Minister that it has passed the reef of the question "Why the state did not sue Siemens?" but two more remain: "Why party funds were not investigated?" and "What sense did the investigation by the Parliamentary Committee make given that it was discredited within months?"
