One really crucial date in the Greek battlefield

... there is indeed one crucial date, which is tomorrow, 11th of June. Two years ago on this date, Samaras administration proceeded in an unprecedented action by closing public broadcaster in one day. 2656 employees were fired in one day, while the then Samaras administration claimed that this was an action to clean public broadcaster from corruption. Ironically his party and the coalition Socialist partner, PASOK, were the two parties that governed Greece for nearly four decades and corrupted every branch of Greece's public institutions.
