Politico: PM Mitsotakis on “hard truths” for Israel and Greece’s economic comeback (podcast)

Anne McElvoy spoke to the Greek PM on his concerns about the war in the M. East, Greece’s proximity to the region & the prospect of increasing humanitarian aid via a sea corridor

Newsroom November 9 10:23

One month after war broke out between Israel and Hamas, the solidarity of European leaders is being tested. Nowhere more so than in Greece, on the EU’s southern border, which has traditional ties to Israel and Arab states.

On this week’s edition of Power Play, host Anne McElvoy speaks to Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on his concerns about the war in the Middle East, Greece’s proximity to the region, and the prospect of increasing humanitarian aid via a sea corridor.

They also discuss Greece’s economic revival, relations with Turkey, the challenges of dealing with migrant boat crossings and climate change.

Anne is then joined by Politico’s “Power Panel” to reflect on the interview. Jamie Dettmer is Politico Europe’s opinion editor, and Matt Kaminski is Politico’s editor-at-large in Washington D.C.
