Criticism of Agricultural Deputy Minister Over Livestock Compensation Issues
In a heated debate, SYRIZA’s Agricultural Development Sector Head Vasilis Kokkalis targeted Deputy Minister Christos Kellas regarding the government’s handling of compensation for livestock farmers affected by last year’s floods. Kokkalis highlighted the inadequate financial support provided, criticizing the government for only compensating 150 euros per lost animal, while failing to address significant losses in income and assets. He called for a reevaluation of the compensation measures to better assist affected farmers.
