The €3.6 billion accounting error made by some incompetent civil servant is exactly what can be expected in your typical banana republic.
The announcement that a special session of the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) will be held tomorrow to look into the matter is exactly what is to be expected in your typical banana republic.

The civil servants will respond with stupid, pointless answers before everybody heads off for lunch – at the taxpayer’s expense.
Exactly what you would expect in your typical banana republic.
