Sadly there has not been many important news regarding immigration, security or other such topics in Greece, after the elections there has been a substantial number of political news with very little importance mostly due to the political climate
Therefore the channel will not be posting things related to those once it does not affect security, immigration and such topics and it also becomes borderline gossip to discuss what x or y group said about each other
