I Have A Deep Sense Of Responsibility

Politics Also Means Educating People. It's Important To Speak Openly With Our Fellow Greeks, To Tell Them What Our Problems Are And That We Have To Change Something.

Greece Has Given Europe The Opportunity To Fix A Defect In The Euro Zone, That Is The Fact That We Did Not Have A Fiscal Union. Now Steps Have Been Taken To Begin That Process. And There Is More Solidarity From Nation To Nation, And That Is A Good Thing. That Has Been Greece's Gift To Europe.

Today I Want To Send A Message Of Optismism To All Greeks. Our Road, Our Path, Will Be More Stabilised. Our Country Will Be In A Better Situation. We Will Be Stronger.

We Had About 60 Regions In Greece And Now There Are Only 13. It'd Be Like Cutting Down 50 States To 13 And Making It More Efficient.

We Have Made Major Reforms In Greece. When I Took Over After A Landslide Victory We Had A Mandate For Change And I Knew My Major Focus Would Be Re-organizing The State.
