“Peculiarities in OLTH did not allow Thessaloniki to develop its port as much as it can, something that will take off the city” said on Radio Thessaloniki the candidate for parliament of ND A’ Thessaloniki Dimitris Venieris, noting that thanks to the political choices made, Piraeus upgraded the role of Attica.

He also mentioned the need to have more greenery “since Thessaloniki is very low in the ratio of green area per inhabitant. Making use of TIF space is a solution, but it is not enough. The intensity of the problem will be reduced by the utilization of the regional camps.”

Answering a related question about the construction of the fly over, he focused on the need “to have all those measures in the city that, combined with the operation of the METRO, limit the daily Calvary during the works. I hope we don’t stumble once again in appeals to the STE, which cost a lot in Thessaloniki”.

Asked about the pros and cons of his relationship with the president of the Hellenic Solution, he stated that it creates a problem for him, “since those who do not know me identify me with aspects of his political and professional career, which are diametrically opposed, however there is also a positive side of the ‘discussion’ taking place regarding my candidacy”.

Regarding the relationship between journalism and politics, he emphasized that the dual nature becomes a powerful weapon “as long as one uses it unabashedly and selflessly”.
