One week after the devastating fire which started from Varnavas and reached as far as Chalandri and Vrillisia, and after apparently completing his… vacation, Kyriakos Mitsotakis decided to visit Penteli.
According to the information from the press office, on Tuesday afternoon, he will be in Penteli with a delegation of co-competent ministers where a meeting will be held with the participation of the Region of Attica and mayors.
“The meeting will concern the findings of the autopsies and the restoration actions that the state has launched in the areas affected by the fire.
The echelon will include:
-Mr. Environment and Energy
-Mr. Interior
-Mr. Civil Protection – State aid office
-Mr. of Finance -TAIPED
– Region of Attica
-Mayors of Penteli, Chalandrio, Pallini, Vrilissi and all the other affected municipalities”.
It is worth noting that the hasty return that was “imposed” on him on Monday, when the fire had reached nightmarish proportions, had nothing to do with the prime minister’s contact with the citizens but with a desperate propaganda effort through the media. In fact, he chose on Wednesday to go to Eleusis – avoiding the citizens – preferring a “sterile environment”. Even there the prime minister’s defensive line was apologetic. Nothing to do with the arrogance of the first period and the arrogance inherent in his attitude so far.
On Thursday, he made highly provocative statements. He himself, in his message for the 15th of August from Chania, appeared out of place and time saying that “fortunately few of our fellow citizens were affected by the fire”. the woman who lost her life in the business where she worked.
The previous day, in an operation to reverse reality, both he and the responsible minister, Vassilis Kikilias, spoke of successful management, while at the same time, he appeared satisfied with the firefighting and the fact that less than 100 houses have been burned.
And in the context of the damage control operation, the prime minister pointed out that “we have full confidence in those who handle the operational business of aerial vehicles“, for which citizens and the opposition have been severely criticized from the first moment, noting that the allocation of air assets is now done by officials who have knowledge of the subject and based on specific operational criteria.
On the same wavelength and the statements of Vassilis Kikilia on Tuesday, who insists on claiming that everything worked properly but the problem was “insurmountable”.
While the fire spread at least 40 kilometers, destroying the last lung of Attica, which is already tragically burdened, in the Mitsotakis government they insist on talking about “rapid operational response” and “improved coordination”. Except none of that worked…
