Koutsoubas: Tuition fees force female students to look for sugar daddies

The general secretary of the KKE called the draft law on non-state universities "an abomination from beginning to end" and added that instead of degrees with "value", there will be degrees with "price"

Newsroom March 7 02:43

Dimitris Koutsoumbas launched a two-pronged attack on ND and PASOK in Parliament during the debate on the bill on non-state universities.

The general secretary of the KKE called the draft law “an abomination from beginning to end” and added that instead of degrees with value, there will be degrees with honour.

“Despite a barrage of lies and propaganda, even in controlled polls, he seems to have half of society against him,” Koutsoubas said, adding at another point, “You are instituting degrees with value instead of degrees with value, which students want. The government, wants to promote the market university, crafted by the EU lobby.”
