Adonis Georgiadis thanked for the publication by Giorgos Amiriadis regarding the NHS. Amiriadis argued that the system had been strengthened and provided data on staff, expenditures, and waiting times. According to the post, the permanent staff of the NHS increased from 90,300 in 2019 to more than 100,000, while together with seasonal staff, it reached 106,000. Expenditures, he reported, doubled from 4.1 billion euros to 8.2 billion euros. He added that renovations and upgrades of equipment were carried out in 236 hospitals and health centers, as well as interventions for digitization and the development of a telemedicine network. Amiriadis stated that 26,800 afternoon surgeries had been performed, 78% in public hospitals and 22% in private hospitals, and claimed that waiting times for surgery over four months had decreased by 98%. He also noted that the average waiting time in emergency departments had decreased by 68%, to less than four hours. The publication also mentioned free prevention programs and exams in remote areas, home delivery or availability of high-cost medications at local pharmacies, online appointments via the My Health app, and checks on private practices through Medwatch. Amiriadis noted that three new hospitals had been scheduled — the Pediatric Hospital of Thessaloniki and the general hospitals of Komotini and Sparta — as well as a new hematopoietic stem cell transplantation unit at Papageorgiou Hospital. Regarding ambulances, he reported 52 new vehicles and 8 mobile medical units in Attica, 34 new ambulances in Central Greece, and 5 in the Ionian Islands, along with a tender for 255 more by early 2027. He added that nurses were included in the heavy and unhealthy job category. In closing, he raised the question of whether Georgiadis had done more than previous ministers and if he would make additional interventions. #ΕΣΥ #Υγεία #ΔημόσιαΥγεία (translated)

FLORENTIA wrote that accounts from a neighboring country dealt with the so-called "gray areas" instead of the natural disaster in their country, which, as noted, had caused human losses and significant material damage. Quoting data attributed to the Geographic Army Service, she stated that 29,372 standalone geographic elements of land had been recorded in Greek territory. She added that the conventional number used by the Greek Tourism Organization and encyclopedias was about 6,000 islands and islets, as it included those exceeding a marginal size. According to her post, 446 had an area of over 1 km², while the permanent population ranged from 117 to 227, depending on the census; the remaining 29,000 or more were uninhabited islets and rocks. FLORENTIA argued that the Treaty of Lausanne defined the limit as 3 miles from the Asian coasts and that, beyond that, the islands and islets of the Aegean were outside Turkish sovereignty. She presented as positions of the accounts she criticized the claims that unmarked areas had "ambiguous" sovereignty, that Turkey's renunciation only concerned the then Great Powers or the Middle East, and that Turkey as the successor of the Ottoman Empire retained territories that had not been explicitly ceded elsewhere. She asserted that these positions had no legal basis and that the reference to island complexes, the 3-mile limit, and Turkey's renunciation based on Article 16 excluded any dispute over Greek sovereignty. She concluded that there was no point in further discussion with these specific accounts and, referring to Sophocles, expressed the view that circumstances should not prevail over justice. #Ελλάδα #ΔιεθνέςΔίκαιο #Γεωπολιτική (translated)

Nikolas wrote that the illegal arrivals in Greece in 2026 had exceeded 33,000, on islands, in Evros, and in Crete. He claimed that it was the highest number in the EU and that it corresponded to more people than a city like Corinth. He added that the main cause was mentioned at the end of the video. https://t.co/u3yR4PypSj #Μετανάστευση #Ελλάδα #ΠαράνομεςΑφίξεις (translated)

Adonis Georgiadis wrote that a woman posted a video in which she insulted him for his visit to Paros the day before. He said he recognized her right to disagree, but argued that the Paros Health Center had been renovated, that by January it would acquire new hotel equipment, that the examination laboratories were operational, new doctors had been hired, and the toilets had been repaired. He added that a helicopter base had been established for airlifts, and that within a year, 482 people had been transferred from Paros and another 32 neighboring islands. According to him, the National Health System had never been in better condition on the island. He also mentioned that the woman was dissatisfied because there were few protesters against him and had insulted those who praised him. Georgiadis criticized the woman for allegedly filming and posting the video while driving, violating the law and putting her life and the lives of others at risk. #Πάρος #Δημοκρατία #Υγεία (translated)

Adonis Georgiadis stated that he inaugurated the renovated Health Center of Paros, visited the new Regional Clinic of Antiparos, and inspected the helicopter emergency medical service base in Paros, which, he said, was established during his term. According to him, within a year, the base had served 32 islands and had conducted 482 airlifts. He claimed that the infrastructure was improving and hiring was accelerating, while he called the reactions of the protesters a "gang of misery." He said that when a female protester mentioned that the Health Center did not have a toilet four years ago, he invited her to see the facilities, but she refused. According to him, another female protester claimed that the Center did not conduct examinations and also refused his invitation to verify the claim. Georgiadis said he received the Health Center in poor condition, that it was renovated and the works continued, while doctors had been hired and more were expected. He added that there was now a laboratory and that the employees recognized the changes. #Υγεία #Ανάπτυξη #Παροχές (translated)

The restoration of landfills on these six islands proves our commitment to permanently resolving the environmental issues of the past. With targeted projects and secured resources, we protect public health, upgrade insular Greece, and enhance the international credibility of the country, leaving behind the era of European fines. The Minister of Environment and Energy, Mr. Stavros Papastavrou, stated: "The restoration of landfills on these six islands proves our commitment to permanently resolving the environmental issues of the past. With targeted projects and secured resources, we protect public health, upgrade insular Greece, and enhance the international credibility of the country, leaving behind the era of European fines." #ΧΑΔΑ #Περιβάλλον #ΝησιωτικήΑνάπτυξη (translated)

John Vatatzis wrote that, in his opinion, for the past seven years the government attributes low birth rates to the fact that Greeks do not want to have children and not to economic difficulties. He noted that, according to a map, the wealthiest areas, such as the islands, had more births, while he described Athens as inhospitable for family creation. He added that instead of developing the countryside, supporting the primary sector, and promoting decentralization, the construction of more floors in large cities was being encouraged. He concluded that those responsible were not interested. #Ελλάδα #Οικογένεια #Οικονομία (translated)

Many of our islands lag behind in infrastructure and are under threat. Today, we are submitting an amendment that proves we listen to communities, we do not disdain them. The president of Pasok announced the submission of an amendment that provides for the extension of the VAT rate reduction by 30% to all islands with a population of fewer than 3,100 residents, claiming that it is a measure of social justice and substantive island policy. #πολιτική #νησιωτική_πολιτική #αλιεία (translated)

The president of PASOK, Nikos Androulakis, fiercely criticized the government for Mitsotakis' proposals regarding the housing crisis and presented amendments for the reduction of VAT on the islands as well as financial support for fishermen. #πολιτική #νησιωτική_πολιτική #αλιεία (translated)

Amalia wrote that a recent report by the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the heroization of Nazism and racism included a separate chapter on Greece. She stated that her post was not addressed to the Left and argued that some leftists supported Vladimir Putin's regime in the hope of reviving the USSR, which she considered unlikely. At the same time, she criticized those who identified as right-wing and, according to her, idealized Russia as a country of traditional values, opposed to irregular migration and globalization, and friendly to Greece due to Orthodoxy. According to the excerpts of the report she provided, the Russian ministry accused Greece of not recognizing a Turkish national minority in Thrace, but only a Muslim one, which included Turks, Pomaks, and Roma, totaling over 120,000 people. The report allegedly also mentioned restrictions on the use of the term "Turkish" by associations, state appointment of muftis, and concerns of the UN Committee on Racial Discrimination regarding the self-determination rights of the community. Regarding Kos and Rhodes, according to Amalia, the report claimed that Muslims were not recognized as a minority and did not have Turkish-speaking schools. Amalia also stated that the report accused Greece of poor reception and detention conditions for refugees, illegal returns of asylum seekers to Turkey, and pushback operations. According to her, it also compared the treatment of refugees from the Middle East and North Africa with the hosting of 23,800 Ukrainians. Finally, she wrote that the report charged Greece with not having ratified the framework convention for national minorities, the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages, and the international convention on the rights of migrant workers and their families. #Ελλάδα #Ρωσία #ΥπουργείοΕξωτερικών (translated)
