Index for EPO and Saint-Germain's Poisonous Legacy of "Toxic Loans" Series

Emperor's new clothes



Summary: A roundup or an index of this past week's series about financial gambles at the EPO -- Battistelli's own dubious idea

THE Frenchman (dual nationality) and former banker António Campinos will take Battistelli's place at the EPO next month, whereupon Battistelli will lose his diplomatic immunity. Will he ever be held accountable for his actions? That remains to be seen. The facts, however, will be documented regardless shall anyone require access to them.



Here are the six parts of this series:



Remember that Battistelli and his protector (Jesper Kongstad) made Battistelli's contract -- and salary -- a closely-guarded secret never to be known or shown to the public. Kongstad's own scandals were covered here two years ago and not too long afterwards we got told that he had, in effect, been fired by the Danish government (we never saw hard evidence of that). Is Battistelli next? Kongstad helped Battistelli get elected as President, so he is in many ways accountable for all that happened after 2010. In our view, these people have blood on their hands (not only chinchillas'). There was an institutional murder, suicides aside. The future of the EPO remains unclear; it's now in the hands of speculators.
