Greece’s Council of State (StE) has annulled operating licenses for three branches of foreign universities, prompting strong criticism from the PASOK party. PASOK is characterizing the decision as a “collapse” of the Pierrakakis Law, which facilitated the establishment of these branches. The party directly blames the government for the legal setback, demanding accountability for the flawed legislation. The ruling casts doubt on the future of foreign university presence in Greece and raises questions about the legal framework governing their operation. This decision stems from concerns regarding the law’s adherence to constitutional requirements and proper procedure. PASOK argues the government rushed the law through without due diligence, leading to this outcome. The situation now necessitates a reassessment of the government’s higher education policy and potentially legislative revisions.
