The great “reshuffle” of the general secretaries of the ministries, instead of turmoil and tensions, worked unifyingly by strengthening the internal cohesion of the government and the party. Moreover, one of the messages that K. Mitsotakis received was that unity and calm must be restored both in the Parliamentary Group and in the relations of the ND. with the full range of its electoral base. And this, according to information, was also the basic instruction he gave to his three colleagues, G. Mylonakis, A. Skertso and T. Nezis, who undertook the task of strengthening the functionality and efficiency of the government, in view of… September restart.
Renewal
The government machinery needed renewal and the removal of persons who had not satisfied with their performance or their versatility. And at the same time to restore the balance and entertain the impressions from the “invasion of the greens”, which was one of the causes of the climate among a part of the K.O. and M. Maximou.
The favorable acceptance of the “reformation” by all wings of the N.D. indicates that the goal has been achieved. A decisive role was played by the new deputy minister in addition to the prime minister G. Mylonakis, who, according to the information, spoke and agreed with all the ministers about the outgoing and incoming general secretaries. He also spoke with the c.g. who would leave, informing them in time. As he informed the young c.g. for the tasks they would undertake. Those who know M. Maximos well are already talking about the “Mylonakis imprint” in the careful way of handling all the problems that arose after the European elections.
The Prime Minister’s decision that the next Greek commissioner should be Rep. Tzitzikostas, who, apart from being a successful regional governor of Central Macedonia for a decade, was also an opponent of K. Mitsotakis in the internal party elections of 2016 for the leadership of Nea Democracy. This is a choice with a clear political and geographical stigma, given the particularities of Northern Greece, which was one of the regions of the country that “sent a strong message” in the European elections.
Messages received
Little by little and without shrinking the electoral and social audience of N.D., K. Mitsotakis shows in practice that he received the messages. Whether they are about arrogant attitudes or political failures or inefficiency or jerky moves. After all, his goal, according to the information, is to find the government ready for war in September, K.O. and the party together, to be the starting point for the country’s new “national bet”. Any changes in Piraeus and the party bodies of the N.D. will take place in the fall.
INSTITUTIONS AND TRANSPARENCY COMMITTEE OF THE PARLIAMENT
The… opposition noise and the choice for a “clean” political landscape
The government, wanting a “clean” political landscape, decided to convene the Parliament’s Institutions and Transparency Committee the day before yesterday, as requested by the opposition parties, after the Supreme Court’s decision on the wiretapping case.
In this direction, to keep the political landscape clear, the government, knowing that in view of the autumn congresses-internal party problems of both SYRIZA and PASOK, their agenda would be to “cover up the eavesdropping” – “cover up the Tempes”, hastened to respond to the request of the opposition, with the result that the Committee on Institutions and Transparency of the Parliament rejected the transmission to the Parliament of both the finding and the filing act of the Supreme Court. But also the summons of the prosecutor of the AP. Georgia Adelinis and the deputy prosecutor Ah. Zisi, who conducted the research.
The demands of the opposition, in addition to a lack of respect for the independence of the Judiciary or its a la carte treatment, also showed the opposition’s intentions to oppose again with the “weapons” it was defeated in both the 2023 national elections and the recent European elections. The only difference is that now there is, in addition to the decision of the Supreme Court, the decision of the Institutions and Transparency Committee of the Parliament.
