(ANSA-AFP) - ATHENS, APR 3 - Greece on Friday reshuffled its government after three cabinet members resigned as a burgeoning EU farm subsidy scandal piled pressure on the country's conservative government. The government resignations came after European Union prosecutors this week said they were probing 20 members of the ruling New Democracy party, including active and former lawmakers. Prosecutors are reportedly probing whether beneficiaries of agriculture subsidies had made false claims. According to Greek authorities, the network defrauded at least 23 million euros ($27 million) since it started around 2018. - 'Widespread corruption' - "The removal of the current leadership of the Ministry of Rural Development highlights the widespread corruption whose core and heart lie deep within the government" and the prime minister's office, the main opposition socialist Pasok party said in a statement. "Of course, until yesterday the prime minister was claiming that this leadership had brought order to the chaos of illegal subsidies," it said. The EU's European Public Prosecutor's Office (EPPO) on Wednesday demanded that Greece lift the parliamentary immunity of 11 lawmakers, for acts allegedly committed in 2021. The agency said it also had information regarding the possible involvement of a former agriculture minister, his deputy and five former MPs. On Thursday, it said there were another two MPs under suspicion. (ANSA-AFP).
