The priority for the government will be to regulate the labour market and increase the minimum wage, Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said on Friday, addressing the new cabinet formed after the recent government reshuffle.
“We are aware of the difficulties and the needs. We will continue our work with the same intensity.
“Mr Tsipras is a weak prime minister,” main opposition New Democracy (ND) spokesperson Maria Spyraki said on Thursday, adding that the government reshuffle confirmed his inability to remove ministers allegedly involved in scandals, such as Panagiotis Kouroumblis, Andreas Xanthos, Pavlos Polakis and Panagiotis Kammenos.
