Greece is seeking greater flexibility from the European Union to support consumers and businesses facing higher energy costs, Kyriakos Mitsotakis said as he arrived for the summit.
According to his remarks, Athens wants additional flexibility options to be considered at European level to make it easier to take measures to tackle energy cost pressures.
At the same time, the prime minister expressed Greece’s dissatisfaction with Ireland’s proposal for the EU’s new Multiannual Financial Framework, saying the country would not accept cuts to spending on agricultural policy.
