Political satire during the carnival in Patras

"The characters on other platforms include German Chancellor Angela Merkel, German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble, Prime Minister Antonis Samaras and his partners in the ruling coalition - Evangelos Venizelos and Fotis Kouvelis. We also have the figures of the representatives of the supervisory Troika. Other platforms show in a funny way how their policies are affecting the lives of us all. For example, the platform called "Greek souvlaki" (Greek skewer) is a satire on the way the Troika’s requirements are harassing the Greeks," the artistic director of the carnival Maria Kourbana told GRReporter.
