At the time he made the statement Gasman referred to, probably he had no clear indication of Greece's financial woos. George Papandreou, as Foreign Minister in the Simitis government, orchestrated the Greek help to the Turkish people struck by the huge earthquake, causing severe trembles in the ranks of Greek and Greek Cypriot nationalists. George Papandreou demonstrated on numerous occasions that he stands for Greek-Turkish friendship, and for this he has been called various names, by Greek and Greek Cypriot nationalists. He was even accused because he danced a zeimpekiko with the late Turkish Foreign Minister, Cem. George Papandreou, with his broad view of Greek - Turkish relations, is scorned by the likes of Oracle and all Greek Cypriot fascists and this is quite understandable. If I were a fascist I would hate him too.
BUT, when I hear Turkish people scorn Papandreou, I say shame on you, ντροπή, ayip! (Or is it utanc?)
Why do you childishly cling to assigning people to "football teams"? Where have I ever poured scorn on George Papandreou? Unlike you, I allow people to run their course and prove themselves, before deciding if they fit into some mold!
