Greek Sports Minister supports in-person EOK elections

Greek Deputy Sports Minister Giannis Vroutsis has expressed support for the Hellenic Basketball Federation (EOK) decision to hold elections for its new Board of Directors in person on December 20.

This decision follows a recent match-fixing scandal that has impacted the credibility of Greek basketball. Vroutsis stated that the move toward in-person voting is a step in the right direction to address the difficult circumstances and restore trust in the sport.

The Ministry of Sports will monitor the process closely, utilizing the e-Kouros platform to ensure that only legal clubs and authorized representatives participate in the elections. Vroutsis emphasized that while the Ministry will act as a guardian of legality, the judiciary remains solely responsible for determining criminal liability regarding recent developments.
