Mitsotakis

Ahead of the Our Ocean conference in Athens this week, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis stressed that Greece is quietly but methodically playing a leading role in defending itself against dramatic climate change, from agricultural production and tourism to the safety and health of its citizens. 

Socialist PASOK leader Nikos Androulakis criticized Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Saturday for refusing his challenge to a televised debate ahead of the European Parliament elections in June, alleging that the conservative leader is avoiding scrutiny over fraud allegations.

Seeking new ways to bolster European defensive cooperation, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis called for the creation of a European Security Fund in statements after meeting with his Polish counterpart Donald Tusk in Warsaw on Friday.

PM Mitsotakis’ is dominant

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis is undeniably correct about one crucial aspect in his recent statements: Greece cannot afford to indulge in political experimentation. It cannot risk a casual approach to voting, a tendency often witnessed in European Parliament elections.

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Thursday rejected calls for Citizen Protection Minister Michalis Chrysochoidis to take responsibility for the murder of 28-year-old Kyriaki Griva by her abusive ex-partner outside an Athens police station just moments after she had sought help from the authorities.

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis reaffirmed Greece's commitment to supporting the European Union integration efforts of Western Balkan countries during his Wednesday meeting with Montenegro's Prime Minister Milojko Spajic.

Kyriakos Mitsotakis and his government find themselves in an enviable but precarious position - both dominant and fragile at the same time. They have no rival at the party level but face the critical mass of the country's problems, which were highlighted in the most tragic fashion by the train collision at Tempe and all that has followed.

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis is set to play a leading role in New Democracy's European elections campaign. 

He said as much in his speech that closed the proceedings of the three-day conference marking the 50th anniversary of New Democracy.

Government officials are surprised and angered by the opposition's call for a fresh vote mere months after their election triumph. The conservatives' arrogance, fueled by their 41 percent victory, blinds them to the significant events of the past 10 months that have reshaped the political landscape based on which voters entrusted Kyriakos Mitsotakis with governing the country.
