Bankingnews (BN) makes a major revelation based on sources within the European Public Prosecutor's Office, government insiders, and political experts. There is a deal between the Greek government, Brussels, and European Chief Prosecutor Laura Kovesi for a truce in exchange for cracking down on Greece's financial mafia. Many are asking, and rightly so, why there are suddenly such dramatic revelations regarding tax evasion networks in Greece.
What exactly is happening?
According to a highly informed BN source, top officials in Brussels had expressed their discontent to the Greek government over the corruption plaguing Greece. European Chief Prosecutor Laura Kovesi protested strongly, emphasizing to her political superiors in Brussels that Greece is covering up organized financial crime. The shadow economy in Greece reaches 40 billion euros, with the state tolerating financial fraudsters either because police officers in top echelons or politicians are taking bribes. At that point, Brussels realized that the abscess in Greece must burst and the swamp of the rotten economy must be exposed. They warned Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis that a red card would be issued to Greece. In Brussels, they possess evidence that the OPEKEPE scandal is massive; they know that Greeks were stealing European funds and were prepared by early 2027 to take very harsh measures, so harsh that the Mitsotakis government would face the risk of collapse.
Government deal with Brussels and Kovesi for a truce
The Greek government, knowing that the issue could not be hidden and that Greece faced the risk of global humiliation, struck a deal with Brussels and European Chief Prosecutor Laura Kovesi. The deal is what has been unfolding recently, where revelations about Greece's financial mafia are coming to light, with more cases to follow, such as in Mykonos or in the Northern Suburbs involving restaurant chains and other businesses. The government had to show European Chief Prosecutor Laura Kovesi and Brussels that it is taking measures, and the case of Horiatiko, although known for years, had to be exposed. They built the case while also taking a move of supreme importance: starting September 1, 2026, wiretapping operations and monitoring of mobile communications reached an all-time peak. What we report is 100% accurate. Of course, the Horiatiko mafia is just the tip of the iceberg; officials in government know it was bribing senior police officers and political figures with bags full of hundreds of thousands of euros to enjoy immunity all these years. The cash was handed over in black bags, so they cannot be easily proven even if names are named, even if they have their mobile phones or recorded conversations. There was an abscess rotten to the bone, and this system of the financial mafia had to break.
Footnote
Does it not spark curiosity that European Chief Prosecutor Laura Kovesi, whose term expires in a few days at the end of October 2026, had recently vanished from the spotlight? Furthermore, we learn that the incoming Chief Prosecutor, Andrés Ritter, who takes over on November 1, has instructions to continue investigating Greece as a den of illegal activity.
Conclusion
The government made the right decision to expose all the financially corrupt individuals and will continue with new revelations because the deal with Brussels demands brave measures from Greece. Behind everything happening today lies the deal between the Greek government, Brussels, and Kovesi for a truce in exchange for Greece's financial mafia.
