The opposition party PASOK, represented by spokesperson Kostas Tsoukalas, has criticized the Greek government, specifically the Minister of Development, for a lack of transparency regarding a list of 2,000 product codes that are reportedly associated with reduced prices in supermarkets. PASOK has alleged that the government is deliberately choosing not to disclose these codes and has described the situation as a “buried treasure,” suggesting that consumers are being misled.

Tsoukalas has called for the immediate public release of the list, emphasizing that failure to do so would imply an acknowledgment of an attempt to deceive the public. He pointed out that supermarkets do not have clarity on which products these codes represent, further complicating the issue and fueling suspicions of government accountability concerning pricing practices. This ongoing controversy highlights tensions between the government and the opposition over issues of consumer rights and product pricing transparency.
