The unfinished Koris Gefyri Dam at Chios the president of PASOK-Movement for Change visited in the morning, Nikos Androulakiscontinuing his tour of the island.

Referring to the issue of water shortage, he pointed out that it is a huge problem in most regions of the country. “Here we have another example of government ineptitude. We are at the dam under construction at the Koris Gefyri site, which I could describe as another “Arta Bridge”. They launched it pre-election in 2023, but you see what the situation is” noted Mr. Androulakis in his statements, referring to the absence of a government plan to deal with the major problem of water scarcity.

“Unfortunately, the New Democracy government does not have a national plan for water resources, a very critical element for the production costs of the primary sector and the daily life of millions of citizens. We can’t just talk about climate change, but we have a duty to implement comprehensive plans to manage this new reality, which affects very large segments of the population across the country. For PASOK, the strategy for a resilient economy and a strong society is a central priority,” he pointed out.

The PASOK-Movement for Change, at the initiative of MP Stavros Michaelidis, has tabled questions in the Parliament about the problem of water shortage and the necessary interventions at the Koris Gefyri dam in order to complete the project.

Afterwards, the President of PASOK-Movement for Change was received by the Metropolitan of Chios, Psara and Oinoussa, Mr. Markos.
