As I learn, new ones have arrived at the American embassy in Athens, as a new associate of George Tsunis has recently arrived, who will take over political contacts. Among other things, his duties will include travel around Greece, which will include contacts with politicians and local communities, ie. church and journalists.

political reason

Five days ago, I wrote to you that one of the scenarios that the Prime Minister is considering is the political activation of ministers. Confirmation came yesterday to the Cabinet of Ministers. The prime minister, setting the political framework before the elections, asked the ministry to work “more politically”. Simply put, not to function as the executive body of Maximos, but to have a political voice and be a participant in the formation of the agenda and, ultimately, decisions.

They’re alike

Nikos Dendias was in the Czech Republic at an informal meeting of the EU Foreign Affairs Council, the so-called “Gimniche”. On this occasion, he was also received by the President of the country, Milos Zeman, and before the start of the council, he took part in an informal meeting with “like-minded people” from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, immigrants from the EPP and who participated in the session (Cyprus, Romania, the Netherlands, Austria, Lithuania, Croatia, Estonia , Latvia). In all these contacts, N. Dendias had the opportunity to point out the disturbing similarities between the Russian revisionist strategy and the Turkish one. Something that more and more of his colleagues are now noticing, as the Greek Foreign Minister emphasizes to his colleagues.

Criteria

Rethymno MP for North Dakota. Giannis Kefalogiannis is said to be the chairman of the investigative committee requested by PASOK to investigate the surveillance case. The choice of Mitsotakis in the person of 40-year-old Kritikos is not accidental and was made for two reasons: firstly, Kefalogiannis passed the previous Pandemic Publicity Test exceptionally well. Secondly, Maximou wants to show that he appreciates the attitude of Kefalogiannis, who, despite the fact that he left as deputy minister, never created the slightest problem, unlike other officials who arrange a “show of force” for banal reasons.

Strengthening Bratacus

The Prime Minister’s decision to finally appoint Giannis Bratakos as Deputy Minister in addition to the Prime Minister with the duties of the Prime Minister’s General Secretary reflects a dual intention: on the one hand, the matter is practical, since the Deputy Minister has more privileges, such as more collaborators, while officially participating, contrary to the prime minister, in the cabinet. On the other hand, the new Deputy Minister is starting his new job with enhanced communications as the title given to him by the Prime Minister elevates his status. Many say that there is now room for another addition to Maximos.

John Kerry’s request

As far as I know, John Kerry really liked Fragoyannis’s presentation on investing in Astypalaea. So much so that he asked her on a stick to talk about the project at the climate summit in Indonesia.
