Commenting on the anxiety of some citizens about whether issues of national sovereignty will also be discussed, he spoke of an anxiety that should not be criminalized.

He clarified that “the Mitsotakis government follows the national line and does not discuss anything else, beyond our one and only difference with Turkey, the determination of the EEZ and the continental shelf”.

Referring to Trump’s election, he emphasized that for Greece it is not a bad result, as the country has a prime minister who, within 5 years, managed to turn it from a country of beggars and a black sheep, to a country that, by its standards, is a star.
