Economic concerns and domestic policy issues have remained central to the Greek landscape. Initially, discussions focused on the challenges facing small and micro-enterprises, including high tax pressure, liquidity problems, and rising energy costs. These difficulties were highlighted during meetings between political leaders and the General Confederation of Professionals, Craftsmen and Merchants of Greece.

Subsequent reports indicate a continued focus on economic measures, such as wage increases and support for fuel and electricity costs, alongside developments regarding debt settlement mechanisms and Euronext Athens. Alongside these economic themes, regional tensions regarding Greek-Turkish relations, specifically concerning maritime zones and Aegean islands, have also emerged in domestic coverage.
