Natasa Pazaiti-Kostas Karamanlis: Their first public appearance 1 year after her theatrical debut

THE Marietta Giannakou, who passed away in February 2022, was a major political figure despite being a neurologist-psychiatrist. He was a Member of Parliament of New Democracy, while he had also served as Minister of Education, Minister of Health and Member of the European Parliament. So, for her memory, almost two years since her loss, a special event was organized on the evening of November 6th, which took place at the Concert Hall and was attended by Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and a large number of people from the political sphere.

The keynote speaker of the event was the former prime minister Kostas Karamanlis and of course by his side were his wife, Natasha Pazaitis and their two twin children, Alice and Alexander.

Among what Costas Karamalis mentioned in his speech about Marietta Giannakou were the following: “Marietta’s greatest contribution to society, beyond her important work, is her character, her journey, her example. With deep faith in her ideas, militant in their defense, always with decency and respect for the opposite point of view, with the common good as her compass. He had no passion for power, for prominence, for arrogance. He had a passion for giving and serving. He had no sponsors or patrons, he did not seek the favor of the powerful or the media”while concluding by saying: “Public life is noticeably poorer without Marietta. She rightfully has the respect and praise of her opponents. The love and nostalgia of the citizens of Athens and the country in general. The appreciation of those who met her on her long journey to the European Parliament”.
