“Policies do not change, important steps have been taken in the security of the country,” said Kyriakos Mitsotakis, when asked during a press conference at the 85th TIF, regarding the police and maintaining order.
“If you look at the statistics, important steps have been taken in the security of the country, 2021 was better than 2020. We will continue to serve this policy. “We want a police friendly to the citizens and their ally,” he said.
“University police will start when they are ready”
At the same time, regarding the policing inside the universities, he said that “we have said that we will use the special guard corps of the universities when we are completely ready”. In this context, the Prime Minister stressed that “the special police will not enter the universities from October”.
“We will need time and the help of the rectors, for things such as controlled entry. If anyone imagines incidents of violence in universities I would really like to discourage them. Today, however, if the police need to intervene, they will do so,” the prime minister added.
