New Democracy MP Lefteris Avgenakis will be elected as the main opposition party’s new secretary, at Wednesday’s scheduled political committee meeting.

The MP has been proposed by party leader Kyriakos Mitsotakis, in recognition of his efforts. Mr. Avngenakis is the only candidate for the position, so it remains to be seen whether a ballot box or acclamation vote will take place.

As such Mr. Avgenakis will succeed Andreas Papamimikos at the critical post, after he was forced to resign following the ONNED fiasco.
