Mitsotakis

The announcement of Apostolakis’ participation in the new ND cabinet spurred a backlash from the main opposition party as sources say that Apostolakis had discussed his appointment with EX-PM Alexis Tsipras.

Apostolakis finally refused his appointment as minister following a scathing attack by SYRIZA, which referred to him as an “apostate”, essentially as a traitor.

The main problem that the prime minister sought to shake off was the management of the disastrous August wildfires that destroyed over 100,000 hectares of forest land.

Waves of rage and indignation emerged from the burnt forests. The residents, as usually occurs after natural disasters, in their desperation sought to apportion responsibility.

In a thinly veiled comparison with SYRIZA’s handling of the 2018 Mati wildfire in which 102 people died, the PM said that the government’s handling of the month’s wild saved lives.

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis maintains that countries near Afghanistan must be supported in order to receive those who want to flee the country and reside at a small distance from their homeland.

A few hours after Erdogan’s statements that Turkey will not become a refugee depot, the telephone communication between the Greek PM and Erdogan will take place, while Athens has already said that it will not accept the instrumentalization of the refugee from Ankara

The office of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis has announced a minor cabinet reshuffle this morning in the aftermath of deadly nationwide wildfires.

The PM clarified that parents will have the power to make any decision, and that vaccination for children will never be mandatory.

The prime minister said that the goal of the government is to vaccinate 70 percent of the population within the summer and that the government will protect public health with persuasion.

Mitsotakis spoke at an Economist conference in Athens.

Cyprus faced a series of destructive wildfires.

'We shall live side-by-side with Turkey, so we must find a way, even when we disagree, to continue talking and managing our differences in a civilised manner,' the Greek PM said.

Self-tests will continue to be distributed to certain categories of citizens. It is unclear whether in autumn vaccinated citizens will be able to receive free self-tests.

Links with bad cops have skyrocketed over the last years. One often sees collaborations between prisoners who have been released and prominent figures in economic and social life.

The bilateral negotiations process is intimately connected with EU-Turkey relations and Ankara by all accounts hopes to be remunerated for its good behaviour.

Turkey's continuous efforts to distort reality, as well as its claims alleging lack of protection of these citizens’ rights or discrimination, are unfounded and are rejected in their entirety.
