Mitsotakis on the Polytechnic uprising: A beacon that lights the way to a more open and democratic society

Mitsotakis noted that "we welcome the 50th anniversary without any party hijackings that insult it, diminishing its stature. And we keep its regenerative spirit active in the new conditions."

The uprising of the Polytechnic University remains “a beacon that lights the way to a more open and democratic society,” Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said on Friday in his message for the 50th anniversary of the November 17 student uprising.

Mitsotakis noted that “we welcome the 50th anniversary without any party hijackings that insult it, diminishing its stature. And we keep its regenerative spirit active in the new conditions.”

He added that November 1973 continues to inspire through the constant renewal of its demands.
