Kammenos and Crete Mafia Figure: 'I Gave the Name Melchizedek to Trump'

A second audio excerpt has been released from the Crete mafia case file, in which Panos Kammenos allegedly speaks with a hotelier accused of criminal activity. According to the audio, Kammenos claims he promoted a request for the Metropolitan of Chania to the staff of then-US President Donald Trump.

In the same conversation, Kammenos mentions being monitored at a hotel in Chania during the SYRIZA-ANEL government, raising questions about who was monitoring him and why.

The dialogue includes references to 'favors' for the election of the Metropolitan of Kydonia and Apokoronas, as well as plans to meet with the Metropolitan and have a meal. The hotelier refers to pressure on the American base regarding the Metropolitan's issue.

At another point in the conversation, the hotelier mentions that bugs were placed in his hotel, while they discuss a police director allegedly involved in the case.
