Greek Government Responds to Criticism from Former Prime Minister Antonis Samaras
Greek Government Spokesman Pavlos Marinakis has criticized former Prime Minister Antonis Samaras for his recent statements, claiming they misrepresent official policies and contain ‘extreme lies.’ Marinakis stated that Samaras’s remarks, which included unfounded allegations regarding diplomatic relations, reflect a political mindset that the current administration has moved beyond. He also highlighted that the ruling New Democracy party has consistently won elections under Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, dismissing any notion of a diminished party influence. Marinakis concluded that Samaras appears to be distancing himself from the party he once led.
