“The issue must be addressed with humanity and in accordance with the rules of law,” he said of Panos Rutsi’s hunger strike
“We do not want to be in constant conflict with Turkey. We want calm waters in the Aegean, which are for the benefit of both countries. But obviously any improvement in relationships goes through the respect of international law and the steady support of our country’s interests. This will be the context of the discussion, which will have tonight The Prime Minister, Kyriakos Mitsotakis, with Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan. “
This was stated by the Vice President of the Government, Kostis Hatzidakisin an interview with Action 24. “We follow a policy that is responsible, serious, away from screams, But it still supports national interests steadily and vigorously, “he added.
Asked about references to endary policy, Mr. Hatzidakis He wondered whether the EEZ delineation with Italy and Egypt, the Rafale market, the four Belharra frigates we have ordered, the F-35 aircraft that boost national defense was intra-market. As well as the marine spatial planning, the ecological parks, the fact that Chevron came for hydrocarbon surveys south of Crete.
Asked about the measures announced at the TIF and their appeal in society, the Vice President of the Government replied that The best communication is to apply the measures. “When they are applied” – he noted – “the benefit will be specific and it will not be what everyone sees. In October, increases for the Armed Forces and Security Forces will be implemented. In November, the permanent allowance of 250 euros will be paid to low -income pensioners and the rent refund to tenants. A three -year salary of 1,500 euros will benefit 1,650 euros a year from tax cuts, ie more than one salary. For young people up to 25 years old, taxation is zeroed and up to 30 years will be 9%. Beneficiaries in one way or another – a female, retired, older people, islands, villages, young people – are more than 4 million citizens and soon in electronic application can be seen each other. “
Regarding the mobility related to the creation of new parties, Mr. Hatzidakis pointed out: “I am in favor of the Great New Democracy because I believe that the place needs strong pillars to be ruled. I believe in unity through the different views that have always existed. Beyond that, I can’t impose anyone to do or do not have a party. We need to do our job and promote the reforms. For example, at this time we have an effort to universities in relation to eternal students, an issue that is consensually addressed. We have 175 mobile health units across the country. We have the reform for urban planning. We have a total of 25 different reforms in the second semester. For them the world voted for us. “
Finally, for the hunger strike by Panos Routsi on Syntagma Square, the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized: “We all have a great deal of sensitivity to the tragedy of Tempi, as well as in the past for similar tragedies in Mandra and Eye. The issue must be addressed with humanity and in accordance with the rules of law. It is not a matter of the government or the opposition to indicate how these rules will be applied. The judges who are responsible are in the context of justice. I do not remember, for example, in the Golden Dawn trial or in Mandra or in the Eye to be placed on judicial officers to make one move or the other. The same thing must be done here, let the authorities do their job. No one has less sensitivity than someone else. “
