Regarding <b>Kyriakos Mitsotakis<\/b>, he stated that he believes Mitsotakis will be re-elected as prime minister.<\/p>\n<p>As for <b>PASOK<\/b>, he expressed his regret that a historic party, which, as he claimed, had stood firm during difficult times, has reached such a point and cannot escape its misfortunes. He also expressed his hope that it would rediscover its role and be useful in the future.<\/p>\n<h3>A stinging rebuke for Alexis Tsipras <\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>However, when he turned his attention to <b>Alexis Tsipras<\/b>, the <b>Hellenic Police<\/b> and <b>SYRIZA<\/b>, he was particularly harsh.
