Adonis Georgiadis: The Ellinikon has begun
Ellinikon not only started, but the first park was delivered, said Adonis Georgiadis, obviously satisfied, in twitter messages he posted today.
The Minister of Development and Investment emphasizes that despite the disputes, “infinite obstacles” have been resolved and since yesterday Ellinikon is open to the public.
More specifically, the minister stated the following:
“They questioned either if @Lamda_Dev had the money for the project, or whether it would be able to solve the endless obstacles that existed, either one or the other, etc. We closed our ears and moved on. From yesterday, the Greek people can visit” Ellinikon has started “”.
My first meeting at @MinDevGR the day I took over the portfolio was with Mr. Odysseas Athanassiou of @Lamda_Dev so it all started and we arrived in June this year when the company bought the land from the HRADF and yesterday it finally opened to the public. Always with @npapathanasis
Αμφισβητούσαν είτε ότι η @Lamda_Dev είχε τα χρήματα για το έργο, είτε εάν εμείς θα κατορθώνανε να λύσουμε τα άπειρα εμπόδια που υπήρχαν, είτε το ένα είτε το άλλο κλπ. Εμείς κλείσαμε τα αυτιά και προχωρήσαμε. Από χθες ο Ελληνικός Λαός μπορεί να επισκεφθεί το «Ελληνικόν» ξεκίνησε.. pic.twitter.com/KDJGO50NLY

Adonis Georgiadis did not fail to mention Pavlos Polakis.
“Pavlos Polakis gave me in Parliament, a gift, a toy bulldozer to say that “Elliniko” is not progressing; I have kept it in my office as a monument of arrogance and failed opposition. If he wants me to guide him personally to the Park of “Elliniko”, I will be happy “.
