Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis during his visit to Rethymno, expressed his satisfaction with the communication he had with stakeholders and with the presentation made by the ministers for the development projects implemented in the region.
He stressed that the cooperation the government has developed with the regions and municipalities of the country is excellent. He stressed that the 8th regional plan being implemented in the country is being presented which can be summed up in three words, priority, planning and accountability, he said.
As far as Crete is concerned, he said that projects are being implemented for which 900 million euros have been secured from the Recovery Fund.
Speaking about the Northern Road Axis of Crete, Mitsotakis said that it is a project with great complexity. "Currently there are open construction sites between Chania and Hersonissos in Heraklion. He stressed that in the coming months the Chania-Heraklion-Hersonissos connection will be signed."
Responding to those who ask, as he said, whether elections are imminent, due to the wide presentation of the projects, he clarified that these will take place in the spring of 2027.
