electoral fatigue. Three Sundays, three election contests. Two in Turkey and between national elections in Greece. In Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan spoke with the second. N.D. Kyriakos Mitsotakis fights for independence on 25 June. This rare coincidence of electoral contests did not ultimately lead to any of the tensions already anticipated by the calm in the Aegean that followed the February 6 earthquakes in Turkey. The unrestrained rhetoric of recent weeks has led journalists to a kind of intellectual meltdown, as – in addition to security and foreign policy issues – they repeat arguments in the political sphere. Guys, calm down. We still have one Sunday left after the election, and then we go on summer vacation.

Of the giants between two former rivals: Garufail (Filo) Kranidiotis and Thanos Tsimeros. Mr. Kranidiotis, the president of the New Rights, according to him, decided to support N.D. in the upcoming elections. “with the goal of a self-sufficient government that can carry out the necessary fiscal reforms without dependencies.” The decision of Mr. Kranidiotis to support N.D. (of the New Democracy, not the New Right, which he leads) irritated his former ideological ally Thanos Tsimeros, who, like another little Galadriel from J. R. R. Tolkien, preferred to retreat and go into the sunset. “I would prefer a small party that highlights the importance of production in getting out of the crisis. Production is not under the auspices of the state, as Adonis imagines, but with economic liberalization. Among the small parties, I will look for non-tame ones,” Mr. Tsimeros said. Thus, writing another episode of the eternal multiple split of the extra-parliamentary right.

Six years have passed since the death of Konstantinos Mitsotakis (photo), which his son marked with his post. “Not a day goes by that we don’t think of you,” Kyriakos Mitsotakis wrote on social media. At the same time, Dora Bakoyannis mentioned the following: “There is no day when I do not miss you! But on the day of your holiday, I so wanted to share with you our joy over the triumph of Kyriakos, and I wanted you to see our Blue Crete. Personal and emotionally charged posts during the period coinciding with the period between elections, such as that experienced by Konstantinos Mitsotakis, naturally evoke certain associations. Drawing a simple analogy, he tried to stop the growth of ND. in 1989 PASOK. In a simple analogy, SYRIZA tried to stop Kyriakos Mitsotakis. The analogy breaks down here, of course. Since N.D. Father Mitsotakis was opposed by the powerful PASOK, led by its founder. While N.D. the son of Mitsotakis faces SYRIZA, which is in a state of political disorientation, and PASOK, which still does not know where he is going. If Konstantinos Mitsotakis were alive, he would surely be smiling.

Baghdad, 1258. The troops of the Mongol warlord Hulagu Khan razed the city to the ground, killing and mostly dismembering thousands of residents of the Abbasid capital. The images must have been horrific and have been described in history books. Katerina Notopoulou of SYRIZA, the first mayor of Thessaloniki, has definitely read some of them. Her statement to SKAI yesterday that “the SYRIZA representation will be competent” testifies to human and internal fear. “Isn’t defeat enough and they want to cut us to pieces?” he might wonder. And to herself to answer: “No, I will never allow it.” I will enter parliament competently.” Fear is for man, and the column provides such an explanation for Ms. Notopoulos’s statement, who cannot but know what the word “competent” means.

“I have become aware of completely untrue and unsubstantiated reports that accuse my person of allegedly financing political parties participating in the May 21 national elections. I have been actively involved in business both in our country and in the international environment for several decades, and by my choice I have never been involved in political life and political events either in Greece or abroad,” said, in particular, the businessman Victor Restis, denying reports linking him to the Victory Party Mr. Restis demands that false and non-existent rumors about him stop and threatens to take them to the criminal justice system.
