Marinakis: Response on Labor Accidents and Postal Vote

Government Spokesperson Pavlos Marinakis refuted the claim that Greece has the most labor accidents, calling it a "crude lie." He stated that Greece is the third country with the fewest labor accidents.

Furthermore, Mr. Marinakis referred to the promotion of postal voting for Greeks abroad in parliamentary elections and the creation of an electoral district for Greeks Abroad with three seats. Postal voting will exclusively concern voters who are outside of Greece and will be implemented from the 2027 elections, provided that the required majority of 2/3 of the Members of Parliament is secured.

He also expressed his condolences for the tragedies in Violanta in Trikala and in Romania.

Initiatives for affordable housing were also announced, including the return of two rents to teachers, doctors and nurses outside Attica and Thessaloniki, restrictions on short-term leases in Thessaloniki and a new program "Build to Rent".

Finally, he referred to the strengthening of measures to deal with sheep and goat pox.
