The first meeting that Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and SYRIZA president Stefanos Kasselakis had in Parliament on Wednesday morning lasted about an hour.
The Prime Minister welcomed him to his office in the Parliament and wished him a good month and a good start.
In the dialogue between them, Kyriakos Mitsotakis asked Stefanos Kasselakis if he has adapted to the new places and role and the president of SYRIZA replied that he has certainly become familiar with the party environment and Greece in general.
Although visibly embarrassed, Stefanos Kassalakis referred to the electoral rights of the expatriates straight from the beginning.
Stefanos Kasselakis told the Prime Minister that we have a responsibility to bring the expatriates back, adding that as a state we must give them the right to vote and be elected, making special reference to the electoral districts.

Kyriakos Mitsotakis then said “this is why the bill that enables Greeks abroad to vote is very important. We will discuss it, the electoral law is defined.”
