Videogate: Giorgos Lakkotrypis Was 'Educated' for Six Months

An investigation is underway regarding a video that has come to light containing conversations between former Energy Minister Giorgos Lakkotrypis, the Director of the President's Office Charalambos Charalambous, and businessman Giorgos Chrysoschos, with a man presented as an investor. According to information, the conversations began when Christodoulides was a candidate and continued after his election. The 'investors' allegedly 'educated' Lakkotrypis for six months, paying him for his expertise in energy matters. The video has caused political uproar and raised questions about potential unfair practices.
