Kyriakos Velopoulos backs Greek government in wire‑tapping scandal

Greek Solution leader Kyriakos Velopoulos, despite portraying an anti‑establishment stance, has repeatedly supported the New Democracy‑led government of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis. His parliamentary interventions have helped the ruling coalition secure crucial votes, including the amendment of the ADAE board composition during the investigation of the national wire‑tapping scandal.

Velopoulos has also called for inquiries into the allegations raised by former prosecutor Adam Georgiades, aligning his actions with the government’s agenda to manage the fallout from the surveillance controversy. Analysts note that his cooperation, described by some commentators as a "friend for the difficult," reflects a pragmatic alliance between his party and the governing majority.

His role in the legislative process has encompassed votes on tax reforms, electoral system changes, and education law amendments, further illustrating his pattern of supporting government proposals while maintaining a self‑styled outsider image.
