“The international geopolitical context remains complex and alarming, especially in the wider Middle East area,” the prime minister notes Kyriakos Mitsotakis In the weekly review of the government work.

He adds that “what is important today is the demonstration of self -restraint and the restart of discussions. Further escalation will create even greater conditions of instability in an extremely overwhelmed area. This issue, like all other major issues related to international security architecture, will have the opportunity to discuss at the Hague NATO conference and the European Council in Brussels next week. Europe must stand up to the benefit of international peace and prosperity. “

Referring to the case of OPECEPEthe prime minister, among other things, stresses – as he says – the politically self -evident: “Those who prove through the criminal proceedings – which may be followed – that they deceived the State to abuse state aid, will face reasonably and the obligation of their return to public funds, that is to say. Independent justice for all those who received money that was not entitled to or participated in any way in the split of European resources. ”

He also notes that ”The problem is timeless and rests all governments which have managed Community funds and European aid. Overall and timeless there have been European recovery decisions for incorrect agricultural aid starting From the late 90s And they reach 3 billion euros. Does this justify this or relieves its political responsibilities today’s government for the years we run? Under no circumstances. We are here to take over the responsibilities that are relevant to usbut first and foremost we are here to put an end to this morbid administrative and regulatory environment that allows some savvy to abuse public money and defame our country. “
