In response to the ongoing instability caused by the war in the Middle East, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis has unveiled a series of new economic support measures aimed at protecting households and businesses. He emphasized the government's commitment to act swiftly in order to buffer the effects of this crisis, particularly in the fuel sector, which has significant implications for production costs, inflation of goods, and the daily lives of citizens.

Mitsotakis noted that from the onset of the conflict in Iran, he pledged that the government would take initiatives to establish a safeguard against the repercussions of this crisis. The Prime Minister reassured citizens of the government's vigorous actions to protect energy security and stability in the region, including support for Cyprus.

Moreover, the Prime Minister highlighted Greece's role in shaping a unified European response to this crisis. However, he stated that the government is prepared to implement unilateral actions at the national level to address the pressing financial challenges, doing so within the bounds of fiscal capabilities. This approach underscores the Greek government's proactive stance in both domestic and international contexts amidst geopolitical tensions.
