Greek PM Mitsotakis response to crises

Entities: Inter‑ministerial Nuclear Energy Committee · Greek government · Kyriakos Mitsotakis · Cyprus · Greek Cabinet

Overview

In early July 2026, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis publicly condemned an arson attack in Thessaloniki, stressing the need for accountability and state action. Later that month, he shifted focus to commemoration and policy, honoring two firefighters who died fighting wildfires and pledging support to their families. He used the occasion to announce a suite of reforms: a summer road‑safety campaign backed by AI‑driven traffic cameras, a structural overhaul of water‑management to treat water as a public good, and the creation of an inter‑ministerial committee to assess Greece’s nuclear‑energy prospects. Mitsotakis also highlighted progress on the national recovery fund, with over a hundred projects slated for completion by August, and noted positive developments in Cyprus following a UN visit.
