Speaking about the results of the elections on May 21, its President SW, Kyriakos Mitsotakissaid he was full of “even more responsibility” for the day ahead, while calling for a strong mandate of a stable government ahead of the second round on June 25.

“Obviously, over a four-year period, when hundreds of leaders in government positions will exercise power, there will be impudence and mistakes, but they are being corrected. We insisted on a different policy model. I believe that the state government also worked in this direction, because it set goals and demanded responsibility, ”he said in an interview with Mega.

In addition, he stressed that the citizens have given the ND a strong mandate to govern, and asks them to be rewarded for what they have done. “A strong government of tomorrow is a condition for the implementation of our program. Perhaps the bar of self-confidence in the enhanced analogue will rise. I ask for a strong mandate for a stable government,” he said, adding that “no one wants a marginal government.

“The urn is empty again”

“The ballot box is empty again. I believe that he has no real reason to change his choice within four weeks. A stable government is a condition for making big changes”, and he emphasized that he never intended to carry out only constitutional changes: “There is a limit of 180 deputies set by the constitution for constitutional control. I believe that this is a practically unattainable goal, and I never intended to deal with constitutional changes alone,” he said.

Regarding the SI program, he emphasized that it is aimed at modernizing public universities and issues of concern to young people. He said that the ND also outperformed the youth in the elections. “Young people are not the fuel in the millstones of populism. Some saw them like that,” he said.

“I did not build bridges with Mr. Androulakis”

“Our political opponents did not understand anything of what happened. They still represent an image that doesn’t exist. I hear rumors that we will privatize water and energy. Fake news,” he stressed.

“What I see in PASOK is very similar to the cause of SYRIZA. If something was defeated in the elections, it was toxicity and emptiness, but also superficiality,” he assessed, and on the revision of the constitution, which will begin in 2025, he said that he would seek consensus.

“I have not broken bridges with Mr. Androulakis. He had a clear strategy. He said he didn’t want me to be prime minister at all. And now he says that even if the ND has 149 deputies, it will not help. If we do not want to get involved in adventures, there is a suggestion. Self-sufficient software. Mr. Androulakis, who is looking for superiority in the opposition, says the same thing,” he continued, noting that he does not care about what is happening in the opposition.

According to him, he is interested in reaching out to all citizens, explaining the program of the SI and what the SI government could be like. He noted that he proved that he uses people from other areas.

“Of course, a mature democracy also needs a reliable opposition. SYRIZA has failed both as a government and as an opposition. My concern is to return to all of Greece. I will speak in the afternoon in Peristeri. What happened to popular areas? They backed ND with an unprecedented percentage. Why did Perama support ND? Because we put the shipbuilding repair zone in order,” he said.

“We envision a new SSY”

Mr. Mitsotakis acknowledged that “there were areas where we did not succeed and that will be our goal for the next 4 years” and explained “how we see the new NBF”.

Regarding accuracy and means, he said: “Accuracy is the biggest problem. This is an import, we are optimistic. Benefits are not a solution, but a temporary relief. Improved market control and increased competition. The best way is higher wages. Thus, we constantly support income. We have not cut taxes across the board, as the opposition called for, and today I can say with relative certainty that the accuracy is there, but the hard times are behind us. We have entered a downward spiral of inflation. Investment grade will give us more breathing room and lower lending rates. Banks must also respond. Everyone is judged and everyone is tested. Ask small and medium entrepreneurs to visit the Development Bank website. More than 50 billion bilateral agreements have been concluded for funds. We have an out-of-court mechanism, we put pressure on the banks to accept the proposals. We can take other steps for the benefit of all. No one has an incentive to put the house up for auction. I believe that competition in the banking system and greater transparency in procurement can further reduce the cost of dealing with banks.”

For social policy

In addition, Mr. Mitsotakis mentioned that for the first time there are programs specifically for single-parent families that have the possibility of free housing. “Yesterday, at the inauguration of the new parliament, there was a homeless person who is no longer homeless. Someone dealt with these people. Family support issues will be crucial. How will we increase kindergartens and make sure that they are not just children’s parking lots. year-round stay, nurseries at 120 businesses, babysitters in the neighborhood. I am very aware of the problems of bullying. A global challenge. I attach great importance. More psychologists in schools. How will we teach younger students to accept and tolerate diversity, “he added .

He also mentioned 36,000 interactive whiteboards in schools. “We are talking about a school that will not emphasize memorization. Very important steps are being taken in the field of public education. I was in Kriya Vrisi during the election campaign. There is an exemplary vocational school. This gives them access to a high school diploma with which they can do other things and opens up another path for them. If I have a child with a teacher on the island, we have to do it,” he stressed.

For the victory of Erdogan and the Greek-Turkish

Regarding Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s electoral victory, Mr. Mitsotakis said he would call him today to congratulate him and express his wish that the improvement of Greek-Turkish relations continue.

“I have no illusions. In any case, as long as the Greek people trust me and I will represent the country at the NATO summit, I will seek a meeting with Mr. Erdogan. It is very important that for many months we have reduced activity in the Aegean. We have met many times. It will also be an opportunity to establish a framework. We have a difference, delineation of maritime zones and the continental shelf,” he added.

For TikTok

Asked about TikTok, he replied: “I have kids who are 25, 24 and 19 of 20. I understand how the new generation communicates. I don’t have an app on my phone. I can use this tool to respond to young people and their language. We show who we really are. If someone feels like they need to poke fun at themselves from time to time, this is a good tool. You haven’t seen anything yet.”

However, he added that “TikTok is good, but nothing can replace a handshake. Tomorrow I will go to Crete. This is an opportunity to thank my fellow citizens for what has been done and to ask them to perform even better in the elections,” and continued: “There are certain rules to get through the pre-election period. You don’t drink or eat.”

Finally, he mentioned that he would go to Athos on Sunday and Monday, and about the Archbishop’s statement, he said that it speaks for itself. “Real patriots are judged by deeds, not by words. The Church remained, remains and must stay away from any partisan confrontation,” he added.
