Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis urged EU prosecutors on Monday to decide swiftly whether to indict lawmakers from his centre-right New Democracy party as part of a farm fraud probe, as he seeks to stem the political fallout from the scandal.
The case has rocked the government after European prosecutors charged dozens of Greek stockbreeders last year with faking ownership of pastureland to claim millions of euros in EU farm subsidies, allegedly with the help of state employees and conservative politicians. (Reuters)
