Greek term or phrase: υπέκυψαν σε «πειρασμούς»

Την ίδια στιγμή επίσης, οι Πολιτικές και Μη Εξουσίες υπέκυψαν σε «πειρασμούς», που αδυνάτησαν το κύρος τους, γεγονός που προκάλεσε περαιτέρω αδυναμία στην ηγετική τους ικανότητα. Δεν ήταν και δεν είναι πλέον εύκολο να ακολουθήσει κανείς τυφλά, οδηγίες, παραινέσεις, αποφάσεις και λόγους πολιτικών ηγετών.
