Maria Karystianou, in an interview with Open, has leveled harsh criticism against Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and other opposition parties, revealing her timeline for launching her own political organization. She defended her decision to enter politics with her own party, asserting that every Greek citizen has the right to run for office and that being part of a political dynasty does not guarantee one will act in the public's best interest.

Karystianou specifically questioned the public's perception of Mitsotakis, who ranks as the most suitable leader according to polls, despite the controversies and scandals surrounding his administration. She challenged listeners to consider how he could be viewed as the best person to govern given the alleged improprieties associated with his leadership.

The announcement of her political party, which she suggests may come before summer, indicates her intent to shake up the political landscape in Greece. Her remarks reflect a broader dissatisfaction with the current political establishment and signal her desire to represent a fresh perspective, positioning herself against traditional political structures in the country.
