On March 22, 2020, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, in his speech, announced emergency measures to deal with the coronavirus pandemic in the country and to limit movement at the national level, which came into effect from the early hours of March 23.
The first lockdown in Greece was something unknown to everyone and the images of the deserted capital were unprecedented.
