Worries About Big Gas Project

Politicians are worried about the Vasiliko gas project. They say it is a secret. The money for it is going up fast. It could cost one billion euros. Etyfa is the company. It does not share money news.

On Tuesday, people talked about it. They asked Etyfa for more facts. The boss, Giorgos Ashikalis, did not say much. He said there are court cases. He thinks sharing now is bad. MPs are not happy. They want to know about the money.

The Energy Minister, Michalis Damianos, also gave few answers. He did not say when it will end. He said the government wants to fix it. Slow rules cause delays. He will give more answers soon.

The project has had problems. A Chinese company left in July 2024. This made things hard. They need new partners. The court cases are because of this.

The boss, Kyriacos Hadjiyiannis, knows it is hard. He said the government is trying. But Etyfa and the minister are not clear. This makes politicians more worried. They think the cost is too high.

More facts are needed. The project has court cases. People need to know more. High costs are a worry. Fixing the court cases is important. This will help the project.
