Mitsotakis: Maduro's Fall Offers Hope for Venezuela – No Comment on Legitimacy

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis expressed his satisfaction with the fall of Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela, describing it as a new hope for the country's people. He emphasized that it is not the time to comment on the legitimacy of recent events, but the priority should be to ensure a peaceful and rapid transition to an inclusive and democratically legitimized government. Greece will work with its European partners and the UN Security Council to find a solution. At the same time, the government is closely monitoring the situation to ensure the safety of Greek citizens in the country.
