Kyriakos Mitsotakis reflects on faith and resilience in Easter message

·

In his 2025 Easter message, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis highlighted the enduring message of Orthodox Easter as a journey “through pain and hardship, to light and hope.”

He reflected on the global and national challenges of the past year, saying, “This year, Easter finds troubled humanity seeking peace. And our societies are being tested.” Despite these difficulties, he affirmed that Greece continues to push forward.

“The state stands by society. Supporting the economy and households. Strengthening our country and our democracy,” he said.

Mitsotakis called on the public to embrace the Easter message not only as a religious milestone but also as a symbol of collective strength and resilience.

“We draw strength from the message of the Resurrection. Which is, above all, a victory of life, of truth, of love,” he emphasised.

The Prime Minister encouraged all Greeks to celebrate Easter with compassion, saying, “Let us celebrate Easter with our loved ones. But also with those who need us by their side.”

He concluded with a message of unity and hope: “With unity, we are stronger. With faith, we endure. Happy Easter to all!”
