Yesterday the ridesharing service, Uber X, was suspended due to the government’s new extremely negative bill which was recently passed in parliament. This is a development KEFiM views as a temporary defeat for freedom.

For us, Uber X’s operation, as well as other ridesharing and participatory economy applications are a significant factor in our path to liberty. In this direction, amongst other relative actions we’ve taken, we have in the last few months translated and published in Greek on the liberal.gr website a series of articles from foreign think tanks relating to the subject. Today is a good opportunity to remember them.

Our commitment is firm and obvious: to continue with even greater determination the effort for the obvious – for the dominance of liberal ideals in the Greek economy, society and every aspect of the public.
