Greece does not accept suggestions on how to defend its sovereign rights – ONLARISSA.GR Larissa News
Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis sent a stern message to Turkey during the press conference he is giving at this time in Alexandroupoli.
Mr. Mitsotakis referred to the upcoming elections while at the same time he spoke about the barrage of Turkish challenges, sending multiple messages.
We protect our borders, noted the prime minister, noting at the same time in the shadow of the Turkish challenges, that I hope we have the crescendo of rhetorical dependence and from now on the tones will drop.
“I think that both here and in Turkey more or less that we have elections close, it can be good because new governments will emerge at the same time” he said to add.
“Greece does not accept suggestions on how to defend its sovereign rights,” he pointed out.
What did he say about the election?
Mr. Mitsotakis also mentioned the issue of the elections, stressing that “they will take place in the spring and they will actually take place at such a point in time that we will practically have four years”.
He also stated that “I never sought a toxic climate and intense verbal confrontation and I always like to talk about the work he has done, but also about the work that needs to be done from now on.
I believe that the citizens are not interested in polarization, tension and a return to a rhetoric that refers more to times of memoranda and not to times when our country confidently and confidently looks to the future,” he noted.
Candidate in Evros
However, the prime minister says that in the upcoming elections they will be candidates in Evros.
As he explained, this is a decision taken for symbolic reasons, since the region has been at the forefront of national challenges.
“History will judge Constantine”
In his interview, the Prime Minister also referred to the death of the former King Constantine. “History will judge Konstantinos of public life fairly but also strictly, for Konstantinos the man we are already accompanied by sadness and respect” said the prime minister.
Asked how he sees the “tensions” created after the government’s decision to declare the former king as a private citizen, the prime minister replied that he does not see tensions, but a historical relegation of Constantine’s role, which was useful for new generations . .
The prime minister said that the decision to declare Constantine as a private citizen is absolutely correct, since the kingdom of Greece does not exist and the former king had lost his Greek citizenship.
However, he pointed out that the funeral would end on Monday with the dignity and ritual required for Constantine’s historic journey.
