Attack on Kyriakos Mitsotakis on the occasion of the reference of the president of New Democracy to EYDAP and EYATH SYRIZA releases with its announcement.

Koumoundourou states in her statement:

“Mr. Mitsotakis is the one who in 2018 was talking about a “strategic investor” in EYDAP and EYATH.

Mr. Mitsotakis is the one who ignored his decisions for a year and a half Council of State (Council of State) of February 2022 which secured public control over water and did not return the EYDAP and EYATH shares from the Superfund to the State.

It is Mr. Mitsotakis who in July 2022 with Law 4964 passed a legislative regulation that bypasses the decisions of the Council of Ministers and provides that the majority package of shares remains in the Superfund “and is neither returned nor granted”.

Mr. Mitsotakis is concerned by the decisions 7 and 8/2023 of the Council of Compliance of the CoE which called on the government in March 2023 to immediately comply with the decisions on the return of EYDAP and EYATH shares to the State.

It was Mr. Mitsotakis who rejected his amendment SYRIZA in April 2023 which provided for the immediate return of the shares of EYDAP and EYATH to the State in compliance with the decisions of the STE.

Mr. Mitsotakis is that the PPP concession tender for the external aqueduct of Attica started in 2021, which was canceled by the CoE in October 2022.

Finally, it is Mr. Mitsotakis who, in March 2023, with Law 5037 for the new Regulatory Authority (RAAEF), transferred the supervision of water supply services outside the State.

All the moves of the previous Mitsotakis government show privatization. And it is certain that an uncontrolled ND government in the next four years will not hesitate to complete its planning, even through the revision of the Constitution.

Only a strong SYRIZA-PS can stand in the way of Mr. Mitsotakis’ plans to privatize water after PPC».
