Afroditi Nestora: This inhuman, blind terrorist strike has put my family in an extremely difficult position
In her statement in full, she writes: “During these difficult hours that my family and I are going through, I thank you for your thoughts and support. The inhuman, blind terrorist strike on my home has put my family in an extremely difficult position — right now, my only priority is the health of my parents.
Politically, no matter how much some people are bothered, I personally am not afraid of them — they cannot terrorize us. I will continue to stand tall for free thought and opinion, and for our ability to express our ideas, for society, for Thessaloniki.”
