Kyriakos Pierrakakis made social contribution a priority, sending a message against personal strategies at the Conference of the New Democracy.
On the need for rallying and absolute focus on the daily problems of citizens, Kyriakos Pierrakakis during his speech at the Conference of New Democracy.
The Minister of Finance chose to send a strong message of unity to the inner party, stressing that the commitment to the needs of society must be the sole guiding principle of government policy.
Mr. Pierrakakis also contained a direct but clear criticism of the phenomena of introversion, personal strategies and intra-party disputes that have seen the light of day.
“Society does not expect us to concern ourselves with ourselves. It is not interested in internal party whispers, narcissism and petty egos,” he said, stressing that citizens expect solutions to their daily problems and improvement of their lives.
Kyriakos Pierrakakis particularly focused on the expectations of middle class and the need for the country to continue its development course.
“There is a struggling society outside, a middle class that wants to live better and a country that wants to move forward. They will judge us by whether we can change their lives,” he said.
The minister also called on party cadres to demonstrate political boldness, stressing that “great factions do not win when they look in their own mirror, but when they look at the horizon of the country.”
“History does not remember those who cowed and hesitated, but those who dared. Let us dare again, let us dare together, with Kyriakos Mitsotakis at the helm of the country, to inspire and prove that we can succeed,” he concluded.
