Interview with Nektarios Koukoulis
|
|
Nektarios Koukoulis was an Aigina councillor in the year 2003 at the time that the chemtrails began to be discussed here in Greece. It was he who went to speak to the then mayor Mr. Mourtzis about the subject and then gave a presentation to the council. As a result the Council decided to proceed with legal action against whoever was responsible for this phenomenon. |

Nektarios Koukoulis: Around 2002 people in Greece started to become familiar with the problem that had emerged with chemical spraying from aircraft, the problem known internationally as chemtrails. I became concerned about it because indirectly this problem affecting the health of people in Aigina. But also because I had observed that at certain times the spraying phenomenon is very intense in the skies over Aigina, I gathered together all the facts and all the evidence and I decided to place the matter before the council for discussion and for a decision to be taken. That happened. The discussion did take place. The municipal council of Aigina accepted my presentation and together with the mayor the council decided to ask for legal investigation of the whole issue.
And what was the result?
N. K.: We could make a sociological comment on the result. Unfortunately in small local communities it is difficult for the international principle “think globally act locally” to be translated into practice. Because people are absorbed in their own problems and also because unfortunately there are difficulties in access to environmental information.
I confess that although the council agreed with my presentation of the subject, the problem was not really very well understood. As a result, the lawyers appointed by the municipality and the mayor ruled that there was no tangible evidence to justify pursuit of legal action. Since then the phenomenon of the chemtrails and the spraying has continued and at times is very intense. Since then I have confined myself to observing the phenomenon, to communicating with friends and keeping them informed and to maintaining a photographic record of what is happening.
