Acting Minister of Sports of Greece Georgios Vasiliadis announced the suspension of the championship of Greece in football.
The reason for this was a scandalous incident with the owner of the football club PAOK Ivan Savvidi, which happened in the end of the match between the teams PAOK and AEK.
"We will not allow riots to return, and we are ready to use the political component, but this is the last thing that worries us. The most important are the rules that should be the same for all. We decided to suspend the championship for an indefinite period of time. In the next few hours we will hold meetings with trade unions, federation, league.
We are in contact with UEFA and will not resume the championship until a new clear structure is reached, agreed upon by all. We continue the battle for transparency, "- said Vasiliadis.
In addition, the Greek police issued a warrant for the arrest of a Russian businessman, reports the BBC.
Let's remind, Savvidi interrupted with a weapon in hands a football match of the championship of Greece between clubs PAOK and AEK in Thessaloniki, having run out on the field with a pistol in a holster.
