The Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Monday announced a special allocation of 500 million euros from the state budget for Attica Region and Evia

Σε συνθήκες πόλωσης ένας ψηφοφόρος δυσκολότερα θα εγκαταλείψει το στρατόπεδό του για να μετακινηθεί στους αντιπάλους. Και όλα τα πεδία σύγκρουσης που έχει έως τώρα επιλέξει η αντιπολίτευση είναι σχεδόν εκ προοιμίου προνομιακά για τη φιλοκυβερνητική κοινή γνώμη.

Τίποτα δεν φαίνεται να στοιχειοθετεί τη μανία καταδίωξης πέρα από τη μόνιμη μανία καταδίωξης που φαίνεται να διακατέχει την αντιπολίτευση. Γράφει ο Γιάννης Πρετεντέρης.

Mr. Samaras opposes Greek-Turkish talks but forgets that while in power he permitted exploratory talks to be held and he held direct talks with Turkish President Erdogan.

Η πραγματική αντίθεση «εθνικού/κομματικού» ισχύει μόνο σε ακραίες περιστάσεις, με δεδομένο ότι σε συνθήκες δημοκρατίας όλα τα κόμματα υπηρετούν το έθνος. Αλλά φυσικά δεν το υπηρετούν με τον ίδιο τρόπο. Ευτυχώς. Διότι τότε δεν θα χρειαζόταν να έχουμε κόμματα. Γράφει ο Γιάννης Πρετεντέρης

Even the most incredulous person realises the words of the Turkish president are hollow as he takes care to demonstrate every day that he is an untrustworthy interlocutor.

Κανείς δεν μπορεί να κατηγορήσει τον Μητσοτάκη ότι πέρασε έναν ανέφελο πρώτο χρόνο διακυβέρνησης. Με κορωνοϊό, Ερντογάν, Μεταναστευτικό και ύφεση, μόνο την πανούκλα και τις ακρίδες γλιτώσαμε. Γράφει ο Γιάννης Κ. Πρετεντέρης.

The government will do its best to "ensure that the serious cases of coronavirus and few and far between," PM Mitsotakis said.

The intention of the German giant Volkswagen to make an investment on the island of Thasos sends a positive signal and a resounding message that could trigger investment by equally important companies in global industry.

'The Mati disaster shook Greek society to its core. Extreme weather events are the direct consequence of climate change. It is not a problem that can be put off for more decades,' the PM told the UN.

It was not clear whether the country’s path would be one of stabilisation and reform or of a return to a vicious circle of postponements, delays, and backpedaling.

The government will push for a decrease of primary surplus targets but not immediately, only once Greece acquires political credibility, Mitsotakis told journalists.

The government with its words and deeds must confirm that it has chosen the path of growth and of freeing up economic forces.

Pyatt in a very upbeat tweet said the Ross-Georgiadis meeting touched 'on plans for government reforms that will attract more US investment' , and he stressed the keen US interest in the Hellenicon project.

Kyriakos Mitsotakis told Britain’s Observer newspaper on Sunday he would be willing to lend important artefacts to London that 'have never left Greece' in return for putting the marbles on display in Athens in 2021,

'We have a prime minister whose goal is to bring about more investment and growth...we want to provide technical know-how in the agricultural sector,' Rutte said.

It was known in advance that the looming issue of lowering Greece’s primary surplus requirements would not be at the top of the agenda.

'We shall make changes in our economy that concern us… I want o change the framework of Greece-Germany relations,' PM Kyriakos Mitsotakis declared.

The fate of the new government will be judged by the boldness, clarity, and aims of new draft legislation and by its confirmation of the “alternate plan” for which the Greek people opted in the 7 July general election.

It is time after many years to break the climate of division and of the automatic rejection of the initiatives of one’s political opponents.
