Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis is attending the European People’s Party (EPP) leaders' summit in Berlin, taking place on Friday and Saturday.

During the meeting, Mitsotakis is set to hold key discussions with influential figures, including Friedrich Merz, leader of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU), European Parliament President Roberta Metsola, EPP President in the European Parliament Manfred Weber, and Cypriot President Nikos Christodoulides.

The summit, organised by Weber and Merz, brings together 15 heads of state and government, as well as prominent European leaders, such as European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and European Parliament President Roberta Metsola. The gathering occurs just weeks before the German elections and days before US President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration.

Key topics on the agenda include the European Union’s role in the shifting global landscape, security issues, economic competition, and strategies to reduce bureaucracy within the EU.

On the sidelines of the summit, hosted at the Konrad Adenauer Foundation headquarters, Mitsotakis, a prominent figure within the EPP, will meet with Friedrich Merz, the CDU/CSU candidate for the German chancellorship.
