COMMISSION OPINION OF 23 MAY 1979 ON THE APPLICATION FOR ACCESSION TO THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES BY THE HELLENIC REPUBLIC THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, Having regard to Article 98 of the Treaty establishing the European Coal and Steel Community, Article 237 of the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community and Article 205 of the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community, Whereas the Hellenic Republic has applied to become a member of these Communities; Whereas in its Opinion of 29 January 1976 the Commission has already been able to express its views on certain essential aspects of the problems arising in connection with this application; Whereas the terms for the admission of the Hellenic Republic and the adjustments to the Treaties necessitated by its accession have been negotiated in a Conference between the Communities and the applicant State; whereas singleness of Community representation was ensured with due regard for the institutional dialogue provided for by the Treaties; Whereas, on the completion of these negotiations, it is apparent that the provisions so agreed are fair and proper; whereas, this being so, the Community's enlargement, while preserving its internal cohesion and dynamism, will enable it to take a fuller part in the development of international relations; Whereas in joining the Communities the applicant State accepts without reserve the Treaties and their political objectives, all decisions taken since their entry into force, and the action that has been agreed in respect of the development and reinforcement of the Communities; Whereas it is an essential feature of the legal system set up by the Treaties establishing the Communities that certain of their provisions and certain acts of the Community institutions are directly applicable, that Community law takes precedence over any national provisions conflicting with it, and that procedures exist for ensuring the uniform interpretation of this law; whereas accession to the Communities entails recognition of the binding force of these rules, observance of which is indispensable to guarantee the effectiveness and unity of Community law; Whereas the principles of pluralist democracy and respect for human rights form part of the common heritage of the peoples of the States brought together in the European Communities and are therefore essential elements of membership of the said Communities; Whereas enlargement of the Communities through the accession of the Hellenic Republic will help to preserve and strengthen peace and liberty in Europe, HEREBY DELIVERS A FAVOURABLE OPINION on the accession to the European Communities of the Hellenic Republic.

  • Xanthippi Kotz Ag Ео Rg I- Georgios A. Kazam I As the Bulgarian Occupation of the Prefecture of Drama (1941-1944) and Its Cons
    XANTHIPPI KOTZ AG ЕО RG I- GEORGIOS A. KAZAM I AS THE BULGARIAN OCCUPATION OF THE PREFECTURE OF DRAMA (1941-1944) AND ITS CONSEQUENCES ON THE GREEK POPULATION ■*£->·- The Bulgarian occupation of Eastern Macedonia and Thrace during World War II is a subject as complex and sensitive as it is tragic, and yet it was dealt with by Greek writers only during the decades of the 1940’s and 1950’s. A study of the bibliography of this time leads U9 to the following unavoidable observations: a) The people that dealt with and wrote about the issue of the Bulgarian occupation were directly involved—by position or by nature—in the situation when and where it occurred, b) In many of the works which deal with the issue there is no desire to approach it scientifically, c) A strong nationalistic, disorienting tone is inherent in most of these works, d) Many of the relevant works draw so heavily upon previous authors that it is often difficult to speak of new self-contained work, e) Finally, there is a marked absence of information coming from archive material; even when such information does exist, it is more often than not, fragmentary*. The aim of this article is to provide an initial scientific record by a Greek author of the World War II Bulgarian occupation and of its consequences on the city and the area of the prefecture of Drama. Its principle aim is not, ho­ wever, to give a full catalogue of victims or an assessment of the extent of destruction etc., but rather to provide a brief, collective (and not necessarily exhaustive) picture of the Bulgarian occupation and its consequences on the Greek population.

  • Assessing the Identity of Grapevine Plants from Vineyards from Crete and Samos by Microsatellite Profiling
    ASSESSING THE IDENTITY OF GRAPEVINE PLANTS FROM VINEYARDS FROM CRETE AND SAMOS BY MICROSATELLITE PROFILING ÉVALUATION DE L’IDENTITÉ DE PLANTS DE VIGNES ISSUS DES VIGNOBLES DE CRÈTE ET DE SAMOS PAR PROFILAGE À DES LOCI MICROSATELLITES F. LEFORT1,*and K. ROUBELAKIS-ANGELAKIS2 1 : Laboratoire de Biotechnologie et Génétique Appliquée, École d’ingénieurs de Lullier (EIL), Haute École Spécialisée de Suisse Occidentale (HES SO), 150 route de Presinge, 1254 Jussy, Switzerland 2 : Laboratory of Plant Physiology and Biotechnology, Department of Biology, University of Crete, P.O. Box 2208, 71409 Heraklion, Crete, Greece Abstract : Four nuclear microsatellite markers were used for testing 45 plants visually selected from 18 locations in controlled origin wine areas of Crete and Samos, and representing 7 cultivars. Discrepancies between the obtained profile and a profile from a plant of reference of a given cultivar, were found for 26 plants. This sugges- ted that microsatellite profiling at a small number of loci was an efficient procedure in order to detect and remove inappropriate material at an early stage of selection. In a second case, three plants were sampled from a vineyard, located in the controlled origin wine area of Dafnes in Crete, for testing their identity in comparison to cultivars of reference at 15 nuclear microsatellite loci. Only one matched its identity profile of reference. One of them was found to be a continental cultivar, named Fegi and not usually grown in Crete. This showed the resolution of microsatellite profiling for problems where misnaming at an early stage in nursery or trade could have important consequences for growers in controlled origin wine areas.
