According to the collective, Chantzis’s condition is extremely critical. He now weighs 35kg, with his life ‘hanging by a thread’.

‘The responsibility lies entirely with Nikos Hardalias, the Mitsotakis government, the Ministry of Culture, but also with the other bodies involved, such as the Ministry of Culture and the Municipality of Athens, who, while they have the solution in their hands, have not provided it and will ultimately all bear the same responsibility for the death of the first hunger striker in Greece,’ the collective said.
