During the budget debates, Zeybek referenced OECD and Eurostat data to underline Greece's lagging status in key sectors:
Zeybek drew attention to the inadequate infrastructure of schools in Western Thrace, particularly the Iskece Minority Secondary and High School. He stressed the need for a modern and safe school building and reminded Parliament of his oral motion scheduled for discussion on Dec. 16.
"The physical shortcomings of schools in Greece are a major issue, and we must prioritize improving educational infrastructure, especially in regions like Western Thrace," he said.
Zeybek urged the government to boost public spending in education and healthcare, maintain social aid programs, and expedite regional development projects. He emphasized the need for long-term investment strategies to address systemic issues.
