The prolonged pre-election period that Greece has already entered is harming the country, main opposition New Democracy (ND) leader Kyriakos Mitsotakis said on Tuesday, addressing the 3rd Euro-Arab Summit held in Athens. He estimated that general elections should be held as soon as possible and appealed to Arab entrepreneurs to take advantage of the investment opportunities offered by Greece, noting that these will increase after the elections and the ensuing political change.
He appeared certain that the elections will usher in a new government with a clear mandate to make the necessary changes and ensure the political stability that the economy needs.
Mitsotakis referred to Greece’s economic relations with the Arab World, noting that they have huge prospects to grow further. 
Addressing the Arab entrepreneurs he underlined that tourism will seek, in the following years, billions in investments and urged them to invest in real estate and in energy. Oil and natural gas are offered for Arab investment due also to their knowhow.
Concluding, Mitsotakis sent an invitation to the Arab businessmen to invest in Greece and to take advantage of the huge opportunities in the country.
