The restructuring chapter is nearing completion, with President Anastasiadis still keeping his papers well closed.
According to information published today by the newspaper "Phileleftheros", the scene has begun to take shape and two of the changes in the Ministry have almost "locked", while in the names that are in the foreground is that of the Mayor of Ayia Napa, Giannis Karousou for the Ministry of Transport, Communications and Works.
Petridis in Finance and Nouri Ministerialization
Specifically, apart from the shocking unexpected, according to the report of "Phileleftheros", the Minister of Interior, Konstantinos Petridis, takes over the portfolio of the Ministry of Finance after the departure of Haris Georgiadis, which will take place in December. The appointment of Nikos Nouris to the Council of Ministers must be considered almost certain, taking over the reins of the Ministry of Interior with the imminent transfer of Konstantinos Petridis to the Ministry of Finance.
Giannis Karousos and Aimili Giolitis for the Ministry of Transport
We will probably have a change of baton at the Ministry of Communications and Works. According to information, President Anastasiadis is thinking of replacing Vasiliki Anastasiadou and the names of possible successors are already circulating. The name of the lawyer Emily Giolitis, who until last July was the chairman of the Board of Directors of the EAC, is heard loudly and the information states that she has the greatest chances. The name of the mayor of Ayia Napa, Giannis Karousou, was also released for the same Ministry.
Nikos Tornaritis in Education and Lakkotrypi's departure
Of course, the capital of the Ministry of Education remains open. Costas Hambiaouris will hardly stay in his post. The name of the DISY parliamentary representative Nikos Tornaritis, who has been chairman of the parliamentary education committee for years, remains high on the list.
The information also states that a new round of changes will follow in the new year in the Council of Ministers. George Lakkotrypis seems to want to leave the Ministry of Energy after six years in office. Of course, this will also depend on developments in energy.
Interest also appears in the Ministry of Innovation and Digital Policy, which has recently been announced in the context of the forthcoming reform. The names of Kyriakos Kokkinos and Stavrianas Kofteros are already being announced as candidates for appointment.
