Mitsotakis on Venezuela: Maduro's Regime Caused 'Inconceivable Pain'

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis expressed his position on the developments in Venezuela through a post in English. He condemned the "brutal and oppressive dictatorship" of Nicolas Maduro, which caused "inconceivable pain" to the Venezuelan people. He considered the end of Maduro's regime to offer "new hope" for the country. Mitsotakis emphasized that the priority is to ensure a "peaceful and rapid transition" to a new, inclusive government with "full democratic legitimacy." Greece will cooperate with its partners in the EU and the UN on the issue, with an emphasis on the safety of Greek citizens in Venezuela.
