“Mr. Mitsotakis also serves communication purposes on the issue of defense,” the SYRIZA president stressed.
The view that the prime minister presented no “defense spending plan”, but was limited to “generalities” and even “delayed four years” was expressed by the SYRIZA-PS President, Socrates During his discipline in the House debate on equipment.
Commenting on the prime minister’s finding that it is “geopolitical safe Europe”, he wondered “what political changes did Mr Mitsotakis make in order not to be geopolitical in Europe and not to be naive Greece”, while stressing that the problem is not the US security of security. “The power power is not in the hunting of equipment, it is not in the party of war in Europe and in the new militarization and with nuclear equipment. The power of power is in peace politics and Greece knows much better, “said Famellos.

What will be his impact on equity funds? What will be the role of the Greek Defense Industry? What priority will Greece’s borders be a European priority? Will you allow Turkey to sit at the Rearm EU table or will you veto?

“To discuss defense issues, you need to give the necessary assurances that this policy is linked to our country’s foreign policy,” he said, summarizing and reiterating: “Strong defense and security of the country means strong foreign policy, strong society and a strong economy.”
“Mr Mitsotakis also serves communication purposes on the issue of defense,” he added, while in terms of Europe, he said that the only ones who benefit are some “oligopolies” associated with defense spending.
“A change of policy is needed in the country,” he said, closing, and called for the resignation of the government and the call for elections.
