“Is the Minister of Health right when he says that, within the next four years, Thessaloniki will have the most modern anti-cancer hospital and the most modern pediatric hospital in the country, combined with significant interventions made by the Recovery Fund in all our building infrastructures, in Emergency Departments, in Health Centers. We have never had such a plan to restructure the NHS infrastructure, as the one implemented by this government. And since many of these projects are Recovery Fund projects, they also have very strict implementation schedules and the citizens of Thessaloniki and Central Macedonia as a whole will see a very significant change in the infrastructure of existing hospitals and Health Centers within the next 18 to 24 months” noted Mr. Mitsotakis.

At the same time, he also referred to FlyOver saying that the aim is to deliver it in the Spring of 2027, before the parliamentary elections.

Kostas Giulekas, Akis Skertsos, Thanasis Kontogeorgis, Nikos Papathanasis, Christos Staikouras, Thodoros Skylakakis, Takis Theodorikakos, Adonis Georgiadis and Lina Mendoni also spoke at the event.

Afterwards, Mr. Mitsotakis went to the Thessaloniki Concert Hall for the presentation of the digital platform erga.gov.gr. It is a platform which, according to government sources, is “a bold step in transparency and accountability”, as it will enable the monitoring of ongoing projects – at all stages and in real time, thereby increasing accountability to the citizens and transparency, while the goal of double convergence will also be reflected – that is, the convergence of Greece with Europe and the Region with Attica.
