Mitsotakis says most European states won't join Trump's 'Board of Peace'

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis told Euronews that Donald Trump’s 'Board of Peace' goes beyond UN Security Council mandate and most European countries won’t join; he noted relief over the de-escalation with the US on Greenland and urged the EU to defend its own interests. At Davos, fewer than 20 countries signed on, with Hungary and Bulgaria the only European participants, and he argued the Gaza plan should be limited to Gaza and time-limited.

Explosions Near Zelensky and Greek PM's Meeting in Odesa

A Russian missile strike near Odesa killed five people and landed just 500 yards from a convoy carrying Ukrainian President Zelensky and Greek Prime Minister Mitsotakis, with neither leader injured. The strike comes amid escalating Russian attacks on the region, including a recent drone attack that killed 12 people. Zelensky emphasized the need for stronger air defenses and urged allies to provide more support, while European Council President Charles Michel condemned the strike as "cowardly tactics" by Russia.

New Democracy secures second term in historic Greek election win.

Greece's conservative New Democracy party, led by Kyriakos Mitsotakis, has won an outright majority in the country's parliamentary elections, securing 158 seats in the 300-seat parliament. The left-wing Syriza party lagged behind with only 47 seats. Far-right parties also made gains, with four fringe parties, mainly from the far-right, managing to top the 3% threshold to make it into parliament. The election outcome is considered market-friendly and puts Greece firmly on track to regain an investment-grade rating towards the end of the year.
