'I did not hesitate to disagree even openly with our large European partners, including Angela Merkel,' Mitsotakis told Parliament

New Democracy leader Kyriakos Mitsotakis explained why his party will vote down the Greece-FYROM Prespa Agreement when it is tabled in the Greek Parliament for ratification to visiting German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who fervently supports the agreement and expressed gratitude to PM Alexis Tsipras and FYROM PM Zoran Zaev for concluding it.
