The tragic demographic decline of the country was reported this morning in Strasbourg by the MEP and a member of the European Parliament’s Budget, Security and Defense Committees Nicolas Farantouris. ‘As long as we talk here at Plenary of the European Parliament For war and peace after the events in Poland, another “war” is already raging in Greece. shrinkage“The Greek MEP said.
“Today schools begin. This year, however, 766 schools are suspended due to lack of students, while 700 schools are closed every year due to lack of children. In Primary Education, students have been reduced by 111,000 within 7 years, or nearly 19%, according to official figures. “
And he concludes: “Acid, existential for the nation, demographic issue requires substantial rather than pre -emptive policies for education and families and decisive support for young women and couples by all means, in a country where births has fallen to 1.3 children per family.”
Free fertility exams and measures against birth of European funding
Last June, the Greek MEP proposed free fertility tests such as AMI examination and “funding exams and actions such as cryopreservation, artificial fertilization, etc. through European funds.
In particular, the MEP had proposed covered from European funds and then by the State:
;
• Conclusion of exams in check-up packages (with the option of excluding “Opt Out”)
• Finding exams and actions such as cryopreservation, artificial fertilization, etc. through European funds as eligible expenses
• Analogic forecasts and for male fertility of funds as eligible expenses
• Analogic forecasts and for male fertility
As long as we are talking about war here, schools start in 🇬🇷 Greece. This year 766 schools are suspended due to lack of students. A “WAR” is already raging. Each year 700 schools are closed due to lack of children. Fewer students by 111,000 in 7 years: 19%drop! @FT pic.twitter.com/ew235kIIs5

What is AMI examination
Antimilius hormone (AMI) is today the most reliable indicator for female fertility, as it shows the ovarian reserve – that is, the number of eggs available. Knowing these elements can lead to solutions in time such as cryopreservation or IVF, processes that also need to receive financial support.
As Mr Farantouris noted, “the cost of the AMI examination is very low – about 20 euros – but its value for prevention and information is incalculable. Cryopheus and artificial fertilization cost much more, but they should also be supported and covered. “
Nicolas Farantouris recalled that the prime minister had pledged last year by TIF’s step to cover the exams, but nothing has been done to date. He also emphasized that the problem is multifactorial – staggering, accuracy, benefits, preschool structures – and requires a complete, serious national strategy.
