The majority of travellers still favour intra-European destinations, particularly neighbouring or non-neighbouring countries. Southern and Mediterranean Europe continues to top the regional travel charts, attracting 41% of prospective visitors. Notably though, this figure reflects an 8% year-on-year decline—potentially linked to rising summer temperatures and climate concerns.
Η δυσπιστία προς τον εκλιπόντα πάπα ήταν διάχυτη μεταξύ των καθολικών του κινήματος MAGA, μια ομάδα που συνδυάζει την υποστήριξη στη λαϊκιστική, εθνικιστική ατζέντα του Τραμπ με τον εναγκαλισμό της χριστιανικής ορθότητας. Δεν έκρυψαν ποτέ την αντιπάθειά τους προς τον φιλελεύθερο ποντίφικα και δεν βλέπουν την ώρα να αντικατασταθεί από έναν πάπα στα δικά τους μέτρα
Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis expresses his condolences to the Catholic world, and especially to the community of Greek Catholics, in a Facebook post following the passing of Pope Francis.
Each year, the Greek Patriarch of Jerusalem leads the Holy Fire ceremony. He enters the Edicule, a small shrine within the Holy Sepulchre encasing Christ’s tomb, alone.
Mitsotakis, accompanied by his wife, Mareva Grabowski-Mitsotaki, also attended the Epitaphios service and procession at the same church on Good Friday (18 April). The couple arrived in Tinos on Holy Thursday (17 April) to spend the Easter holidays with family in the Cycladic island’s serene setting.
The declaration, issued through a Presidential Decree, was published Thursday in the Government Gazette, just a day after the formal unveiling of the country’s comprehensive Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) framework.
