Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis spoke about a broad range of issues during his interview with Alpha TV that was broadcast on Monday evening, ANA reports.
This summer’s wildfires and the two floods that followed right afterward made people sad and demanding of the government to do more than it could do, Mitsotakis said. No one can deny the intensity of natural phenomena, he added, and he spoke of a need to draft an entire strategy of adjustment to deal with climate change.
About price hikes and overall financial struggles, Mitsotakis said that the biggest current problem of the average Greek family is high market prices. “There are two approaches in dealing with this issue,” he said, “one is issuing short-term support measures such as Food Pass, Market Pass, and Fuel Pass, and the other is permanent raises and measures that ensure the market stays regulated.” Against price hikes, the government has raised minimum wages more than once, supported pensioners, and legislated permanent pay raises in the civil service, among other measures.”
