The Prime Minister proceeded to fully cover the Minister of Citizen Protection, Michalis Chrysochoidis, for Sunday’s femicide outside a police station in Agios Anargyros.
«He is a minister who really owns the subject and makes a great effort to change the bad texts in ELAS” Kyriakos Mitsotakis said in an interview with ANT1.
Asked if there is any political responsibility on the part of the minister, Mr. Mitsotakis replied: “No. I am clear and unambiguous. Because if every time something goes wrong in the state, the responsibility goes to the top, we would have resignations every week” and added that:“No, I don’t think there is any political responsibility for the incident.”
At the same time, he characterized the event: “Punch in the stomach for all of us and me personally” and stated that “I felt that someone can be trying to correct a situation, but an event like this comes and shows us that what we have done is not enough and we have to do more.”
At the same time, he appeared particularly defiant and estimated that more reports of domestic violence may mean that women feel more comfortable reporting. And he argued that despite the “incident” in Agioi Anargyrou there is trust in the Police. At the same time, he said “Setbacks and tragedies should make us even stronger.”
Regarding “police cars are not taxis” he said: “There must be a taxi and an ambulance and fire brigade”. While he emphasized that he must “to do more because changing the culture of an organization is not an easy task.”
