Four New Democracy MPs to Face Separate Trials in OPEKEPE Farm Subsidy Scandal This Autumn

This report covers four new democracy mps with key details and context.

Four MPs from Greece’s ruling New Democracy party will stand trial separately this autumn over their alleged involvement in the OPEKEPE EU farm subsidy scandal. The cases were referred by the European Public Prosecutor’s Office, which has been investigating suspected fraud in the distribution of agricultural subsidies.

The decision to split the trials follows a new provision by the Justice Ministry designed to expedite legal proceedings involving political figures. The move aims to prevent delays that have historically plagued high-profile corruption cases in Greece.

The OPEKEPE scandal involves allegations of systematic misuse of EU funds intended for farmers, with billions of euros reportedly lost to fraud. The four MPs have not yet commented publicly on the charges. Their trials are expected to draw significant public and media attention.
