That is why elections aren\u2019t won by looking back. They are won through persistent effort to build a better present, combined with realistic yet ambitious proposals for a more optimistic and just future for everyone, without exclusion.<\/p>\n<p>Our work, however, is the foundation of our credibility. We can promise a better future because we have proven that we have been\u2014and continue to be\u2014consistent in fulfilling the commitments we made to our citizens in both 2019 and 2023.\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3>The Report <\/h3>\n<p>More specifically, \u201cthe government report we have prepared and are presenting in every region of the country aims to do four things:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; to highlight what we have achieved from 2019 to the present across 30 policy areas in a measurable and indisputable way.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; to highlight the importance of reliability, consistency, and effectiveness in order to restore trust in the country\u2019s politics and governance.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; to provide well-founded and documented evidence that New Democracy is the only political force that promises and delivers not 1, 2, or 3, but at least 9 out of the 10 things it has promised. Therefore, it is a force of pragmatism and responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; and finally, to serve as a \u201cdigital repository\u201d of SOS points, as we used to say in school, that is, with the key arguments and facts that counter any attempt to dismiss or invalidate our position, whether from left-wing or far-right populism.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And, in any case, \u201cwe are in the midst of a decade-long effort to transform our homeland, our state, our economy, and our society, with 2030 as our horizon, that is, 200 years since the founding of the modern Greek state. We know that there are still many problems plaguing our country. However, our progress is undeniable and measurable.<\/p>\n<h3>The areas <\/h3>\n<p>In many policy areas, we have managed to overcome the \u201cunshakable status quo\u201d of Greek reality, where for decades nothing ever changed. We have a duty to continue this effort to resolve even the last major unresolved issues that we have been carrying like burdens, some dating back to the previous century.<\/p>\n<p>Seven years later, this is an opportunity to reconnect and reflect on what we\u2019ve achieved together, as well as on the issues that continue to hurt us and must be addressed. After all, the modernization of the state has no expiration date.<\/p>\n<p>In any case, the glass is half full. Greece is changing and moving forward, with everyone for everyone,\u201d concludes the Minister of State\u2019s post.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>The post <\/h3>\n<figure>\n<div class=\"embed-responsive\"><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A look back at the past 7 years of government projects, with an emphasis on reforms, consistency, and the country\u2019s progress toward 2030 in &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13118,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13117","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13117","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=13117"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13117\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/13118"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=13117"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=13117"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=13117"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
