Mitsotakis to delete Samara: What happened, happened – We don’t play with political stability

‘ What happened, happened, was a sad moment and we put it behind us,” was the Prime Minister’s first reaction to his deletion, stressing that the government majority is stable and that the elections will take place in 2027. “ What happened was made and the decision was clearly explained. My job is to look at the future. We have a comfortable parliamentary majority and in these difficult times it is wrong to play with political stability. It was a sad moment but we leave it behind,” Kyriakos Mitsotakis said about the deletion of Antonis Samaras, speaking in the context of a Bloomberg event titled “The New Era of Greek Banking”, Monday (18.11.24). Mitsotakis, following the storming developments with the removal of the former Prime Minister from the South, sent the message that in Greece the government majority is stable and that the holding of elections in 2027 is his personal commitment. It is noted that since yesterday the debate on the future moves of Mr. Samaras and whether his closest people, MPs from the South West, will follow him in any steps. In this context, the eyes turn to the budget being voted on next December. “ We have 2.5 years under the popular mandate to implement our policies, ” the prime minister said, adding that “we do not need to enter into discussions about complicated political alliances. ” Moving on to the “front” of the economy, the prime minister pointed out that “investors trust Greece because it does not involve a risk.” “We can move on to tax cuts, as long as we continue to be efficient with tax evasion, ” stressed Mr Mitsotakis, stating “‘we will do better than some people expect in terms of growth’. Asked about early debt repayment, he said that “the new early repayment, following the early repayment of 8 billion euros from the first memorandum to be completed in December sends a clear message to the markets about Greece’s commitment to fiscal stability and the reduction of public debt.”
