The state must do everything necessary to protect the citizenry. Infrastructure must be repaired. Services must be equipped with suitable tools. Personnel must be trained. Officials must be vigilant.

It is necessary to reorganise the civil protection service by relying on capable and experienced officials and incorporating international experience.

'Every minister receives an envelope with the strategic plan for his or her remit which outlines our central targets, timetables, working groups, and the necessary support. We are planning, implementing, and evaluating our policies with a single objective, to make the lives of citizens better.'

The PM and his ministers may say that they are prepared and have specific plans to deal with the critical issues that they face, but the solutions are anything but simple.

Evangelos Marinakis categorically dismissed slanderous allegations that he visited the PM’s Maximos Mansion offices after the PM was sworn in, even as dozens of international media outlets surrounded the building.

'We express our full solidarity with the Republic of Cyprus and yet again call upon Turkey to immediately cease illegal activity and to respect the sovereign rights of Cyprus,' the ministry stated.
