The General Secretary of the Communist Party of Greece, Dimitris Koutsoumbas, met with Rafina‑Pikermi Mayor Dimitra Tseva and local officials to discuss the operation and future design of the town’s port. The mayor highlighted the need for proper planning, infrastructure upgrades and support from higher authorities to protect residents’ daily life.
In a separate meeting, MP Zetta M. Makri and Deputy Minister of Infrastructure and Transport Georgios Kotziras responded to a request from the Municipality of Nea Pilion to increase the historic Pelion narrow‑gauge railway’s service days.
