Fytiris Challenges Loizidis: "I would be happy to see him go to the front line"

The president of the Equality trade union, Nikos Loizidis, was the subject of discussion at the press conference of the Minister of Justice and Public Order, regarding allegations of threats he received. Minister Fytiris avoided getting involved in a confrontation, describing the noise as disturbing and unsettling. However, he expressed his desire to see Mr. Loizidis submit a request for transfer to a front-line unit, away from Headquarters. This statement appears to be a response to Mr. Loizidis's barbs and suggests an attempt to move the discussion to a more operational level. This exchange highlights the tension between the two sides and the need for transparency and accountability.
