“I had a scheduled trip for 25 days to meet Patriarch Theodore in Alexandria. Of course, after these developments, I will talk to Archbishop Sinai and the monastery’s representatives in Cairo tomorrow night to inform me in the most formal way-we have already spoken by telephone-about what is happening on this top issue.

Nikos Androulakis described the government’s handling of the government, stressing: “What did the government do when it identified the great stubbornness on the Egyptian side? What did he do when he visited the Sinai Monastery and was officially informed that this agreement had not yet been signed? The opposition comes out on the day we learned the negative developments and the government’s response is: “Excess”. Does the Archbishop of Athens exaggerate? Did the Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew exaggerate in his announcement? Is all Orthodoxy and the government’s response to the government spokesman rising? What boldness is that? Really, I am impressed by the size of these people’s arrogance“

And he underlined: ‘If there was no problem, gentlemen of the New Democracy, it would not go down tonight by the Greek government to go back to negotiations. So there is a problem and they had to have faced it in an earlier time“

Commenting on them Developments in the championship in basketballMr. Androulakis stressed: “We have two teams in Europe’s top four, the Greek league begins and we suddenly hear a chance that it will not be completed. Is considered reasonable? Is it reasonable to manage the situation in a sport where the two teams claiming the championship are within four of Europe? Let the law be applied. Did we have an extreme fan violence a fact to stop the championship? Let the owners’ law apply. I can’t understand why these acrobatics are done. That is, the minister himself comes out and says “if they do not come to the same table, the championship stops.” Today he says others, the tomorrow he will say differently. These are not serious things. We are a country where laws must be implemented. Let the laws be applied“

Against the backdrop of yesterday’s new government announcements for the housingthe opposition leader emphasized: “Because I hear that the government has taken many initiatives, it is like saying to us:” I threw 100 three -pointers but everything is airball. ” What is the result of initiatives? Did he put a three -point one? 50% of rents have increased in four years. ”
It has identified the inability of government measures to increase the offering of houses that are the big issue.
“For four years it has” my hair my tongue “, before I even elected PASOK president, to say something simple: when one in two direct foreign investment is real estate, then the offer of real estate for the Greeks is reduced and their property is devastated. We have the Golden Visa galloping, with about 50,000 properties sold. That is, the medicine to reactivate the construction that had “frozen” the years of the Memorandums, we made it a medicine. All the other states “frozen” the Golden Visa, “he noted.
“Do you know what Spain did yesterday? He said that, in addition to Golden Visa, for third -party residents coming to buy real estate, 100% taxation. That is, a deterrent policy to ensure viability in the real estate market so that permanent residents of Spain can have a better perspective both for the market and the rent. Short Term Lease: We need to make pressure zones to see where short -term lease works and where it raises a huge issue for residents. The policies of the New Democracy, even “My Home”, are for a home purchase. When the offer in general is reduced, who is affecting? The one who can’t even rent“He stressed and explained PASOK’s different perspective on the social consideration promoted by the government:
“Mr. Hatzidakis talked about social consideration. That is, he said that we would take public plots, give them to individuals, build some apartment buildings, a large part will sell themselves at market prices, and a small stock will be held by the state to give it to rent on social criteria. We answer: Using the recovery fund and other European tools that will be housed -we already have a housing policy -to build the state and rent them at low cost, social criteria. Not to sell them or give them a champ. Spain, Portugal, Italy, the Municipality of Vienna, I can tell you ten European examples that have just seen rents take off, have taken initiatives corresponding to the PASOK program. “
He referred to the evaluation of civil servants: “We want meritocracy and public evaluation. Mr. Mitsotakis comes and says: “My problem to achieve all this after six years as prime minister is the Constitution.” His problem to succeed is the same. He is a champion of employees and in his days Greece has a record after the Memorandums of Employees.
Secondly, 80% of the deputies and general managers are without evaluation, essential choices of each minister, almost party choices. Talking about evaluation, but evaluation not to be done, well, is the Constitution its problem? The problem is that there is no will to have respect for the laws. “

Finally as to the corruption scandal in OPEKEPE, pointed out:
“The New Democracy has been attacking OPECEPE for two years. They dragged the country, two European prosecutors came here, the Greek Police entered the Agency. Who was finally right? Me or the ministers of the New Democracy? I asked the Prime Minister a current question and said “yes, there are some shadows”. Some shadows are hundreds of millions of euros in fine? The government’s scandal is very curious.
The problem begins on SYRIZA, because then the animals have been allowed elsewhere and elsewhere. Pastry in Central Macedonia, animals in Naxos and Crete. And who took it? The gentlemen of the New Democracy who, while they knew what was happening -“Kathimerini” had a front page -what did Mr. Voridis and the rest do? They continued their practices and took them off. They did it even worse than what SYRIZA had done, so OPECEPE for five years were distributing 19 billion euros! EUR 5 billion does not apply to subsidies. “
