I didn’t have time to write to you everything that happened in Antonis Samaras’ Kalamata talk, but I will give you a central message that cannot be ignored. The former Prime Minister, despite having spoken in Messinia, gave Papeloponnesian characteristics with the presence of many deputies from all prefectures. The Moraita address reinforced this character. Samaras, after all, never concealed the fact that he was acting (and) as the ruler of the Peloponnese and, as he said, would be present the next day as well.

Minus one

In the morning SKAI Alexis Tsipras received a good pass from Fai Skordas, and the President of SYRIZA lost the nail without an opponent. The presenter told Tsipras that he was her mother’s favorite and she sees them from Kilkis. “How old is she?” he asked her, while Skorda avoided taking… a position. There, President SYRIZA made things worse by saying that he gets a lot of love “from old men and especially from old ladies”, to which Skorda replied: “Now that my mother has heard the old lady, go, you lost her.”

This went unnoticed as the discussion took place at night on the Attica Canal. There T. Rusopoulos crossed swords with Al. Haritsy, and an experienced former government representative repeatedly asked his colleague about the cost of programs. Finally, the MP from Messinia acknowledged that the program may include pre-election spending at the insistence of Roussopoulos.

Symbolism

The prime minister stressed in an interview with SKAI yesterday that “the new ENFIA reduction is not in our plans”, but he left a symbolic window open for some areas. He noted that his intentions, if re-elected, are to reduce ENFIA on small islands and small villages. If the ad converts to votes, the impact will be very small and local. But if it is translated as symbolism, then it becomes popular.

Revelation

We had intervention from across the Atlantic in the Bellery case when US Senate Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Bob Menendez described the minority mayor’s arrest as problematic. The Albanian judiciary’s decision is expected on Monday, and Menendez will also reveal the intentions of the Greek government, saying Athens has made it clear that this will be a negative development for Albania’s European perspective.

Selective Combination

The concept was smart. Sixteen people asked the prime minister 16 questions. Long, varied and interesting. When asked about Christos Chomenidis, what politician the Prime Minister would like to compare with and who inspired him, Mitsotakis answered masterfully. In the first part, he evaded any answer, in the second he mentioned Abraham Lincoln “for his courage, perseverance and vision for the abolition of slavery, the unification of America, the advancement of the equality of citizens.” Lincoln was progressive by nature and a staunch Republican. A good combination, both historical and electoral.
