True to his regular Sunday engagement with the public via Facebook, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis chose this week not to present his usual report on the government’s work, but instead to provide a comprehensive review of the seven-year tenure of New Democracy.

Marking the three-year anniversary of the 2023 elections and nearly seven years since its first electoral victory in 2019, the prime minister maintains that the country has made measurable progress in critical areas, while emphasizing that the government is moving forward with a 2030 horizon and the goal of completing the reforms.

In this post, Kyriakos Mitsotakis states that the government is working every day to meet the high expectations of citizens, while acknowledging that there are still problems that need to be addressed. He emphasizes, however, that from 2019 to the present, Greece has made significant progress in the economy, employment, the digital transformation of the state, health, education, and defense.

At the same time, he notes that nearly nine out of ten of New Democracy’s pre-election pledges from 2023 have already been implemented or are in the process of being implemented, highlighting the consistency between words and deeds as a key element of the government’s credibility. In closing, he asserts that the country is in the midst of a decade-long reform process with a horizon set for 2030 and calls on citizens to evaluate the government’s work based on measurable results.
