Greece rocked by massive EU subsidy scandal | JQJO

A major EU agricultural subsidy scandal has rocked Greece, leading to several resignations. Millions of euros in subsidies were illegally obtained, including payments for fictitious sheep, goats, and banana plantations on Mount Olympus. The scandal involves former agriculture ministers and other officials, prompting an investigation by the European Public Prosecutor's Office (EPPO). Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis admitted failure and pledged to combat corruption, while the EPPO's findings detail a criminal organization involved in the fraud. The scandal adds to existing controversies surrounding Mitsotakis's government, raising concerns about corruption and accountability.
