(upd. 08:01) The Deputy Minister of Transport Konstantinos Kyranakis was chosen by the prime minister to be the new secretary of New Democracy.
Sources of the ruling party confirmed today’s “K” report early in the morning.
The prime minister wanted a first-line executive for this position, coming from deep within New Republiclike the current minister, and to be willing to travel all over Greece, as the next elections require a lot of running.
The election of Kyranaki is expected next Wednesday, June 10 at 16:00, during the meeting of the Political Committee of the party under the prime minister.
Mini makeover
This means that there is one more vacancy in the government after the Deputy Minister of Energy, due to his death Nikos Tagaras.
In fact, both gaps are critical, as Kyranakis oversaw the rearrangement of the trains, while the late Nikos Tagaras handled the urban reform that is particularly critical for the country.
At the same time, Mr Tasos Hatzivasiliou is preparing to return to the government, in the position of Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs with responsibility for the preparation of the Greek presidency of the EU. in 2027.
The selection also has specific goals: firstly, after the filing of the case involving OPEKEPE, the prime minister sends a message that those who were unfairly targeted, not only do not stay with the rest, but are also exploited.
In addition, Hatzivasiliou’s entry into the government also aims to strengthen Serres, after the decision of Kostas Karamanlis not to be a candidate again.
