Ο επίτιμος διεθνής πρόεδρος της Ένωσης Ευρωπαίων Δημοσιογράφων, Αθανάσιος Παπανδρόπουλος, ζητεί από το Διεθνές Τμήμα της ΕΕΔ να προσφύγει στα αρμόδια κοινοτικά όργανα για παραβίαση της ελευθερίας έκφρασης στην Ελλάδα και για χαρακτηριστικό εκφοβισμό του Τύπου.
Υπήρξε άμεση συμπαράσταση από Σλοβάκους και Ισπανούς δημοσιογράφους
H επιστολή Παπανδρόπουλου και οι πρώτες αντιδράσεις
Dear collegues,
The greek government some hours ago arrested five of our friends and journalists working for the newspaper Philelefteros and the web site liberal.gr.Their "crime" was a critical reportage about the greek immigration policy.I think that it's urgent for the Association to protest and to sensetize the european institutions.Infortunately this is not the only case in Greece of to day.So its time to react.I am waiting for some reactions of solidarity.You can believe me, we have a real totalitarian attitude in front of us.
Athanase Papandropoulos - Hon.President of the AEJ
