Three years after the Tempi train disaster that claimed 57 lives, Maria Karystianou—the mother who became a national symbol for justice—speaks in an exclusive 25-minute interview.
In this first-ever interview with a Nordic media outlet, the pediatrician and activist opens up about her grueling three-year battle against the Greek political establishment. As Greece marks the anniversary of its deadliest rail crash, Karystianou addresses the alleged cover-ups by the government, her controversial transition into active politics, and her vision for a country free from systemic corruption.
In this interview, we discuss:
* The emotional toll of the three-year anniversary and the memory of her daughter, Marthi.
* Why she believes international intervention from the EU is the only path to accountability.
* Her plans for a new political movement to “cleanse” the Greek state.
* Her message to the international community and the thousands of Greeks still demanding “justice for Tempi.”
The interview will be sent Saturday 28th February @ 1900 CET (Berlin) / @2000 EET (Athens), on Document.news + Document.no YouTube channels.
It is conducted in English and Greek, with English subtitles.
