According to media reports, Greek PM Kyriakos Mitsotakis himself contacted leadership of the concessionaire company managing and exploiting the tollway, considered as a ground-breaking urban infrastructure project when inaugurated more than 20 years ago.
A later statement by the civil defense deputy minister, Christos Stylianides, confirmed that the company accepted the compensation demand.
