“Today begins a difficult but beautiful struggle. The country proudly lifts its head, and we roll up our sleeves. The new government will work hard. The prestige of the republic and the institutions will be restored, ”TASS quotes him.
Mitsotakis announced his intention to reduce taxes, increase investments, and also increase the efficiency of the state apparatus.
“The society wants us to go forward together. It wants economic growth, jobs, security, wants Greece to become strong again, as it deserves, ”he said.
The leader of the “New Democracy” promised to become “the prime minister of all Greeks” and meet the expectations of voters.
Earlier, the current Prime Minister of Greece, Alexis Tsipras, congratulated Mitsotakis on the victory of his party in the elections and promised to give him his authority on Monday, July 8.
In early June, Greek President Prokopis Pavlopoulos accepted an offer from Tsipras for the dissolution of parliament and the appointment of early elections in connection with the defeat of the ruling party SYRIZA in elections to the European Parliament.
