The message that the government will run the full lengthy of its course by 2023 and does not intend to go to early elections was sent by Kyriakos Mitsotakis, saying that “the government will complete its constitutional term. “I want to win the election and that is why we are planning for a decade.”
“I want you to stay on my guarantees. I am involved in what Mr. Tsipras is asking for. All I know is that turkeys are usually not in a hurry for Christmas to come.”
Answering a relevant next question, the Prime Minister noted: “What would I have to gain from early elections, where, despite all the unrest, I enjoy the trust of the people?”.
“He is very optimistic about the course of the Greek economy. The conditions will be suitable when we ask again for the trust of the Greek people, ” he continued and referring quickly to the electoral dilemmas of 2023, Kyriakos Mitsotakis said that “the credibility of this government will be judged by the credibility of the previous government.”
He added meaningfully: “At the end of the four years, the choice of one faction that says it wants to be autonomous will be compared with the choice of the other faction, which I do not understand who this would be, when it talks about progressive governance. Should Mr. Tsipras rule with Mr. Varoufakis? I do not think that the Greeks want to return to 2015.”
We claim autonomy during the first ballot, stressed Kyriakos Mitsotakis, referring to the fact that the next elections will be held by simple proportional representation.
