The announcement came just days after his appointment, with a replacement expected to be named soon.<\/p>\n
In a statement, Doxiadis cited an \u201cimmoral war\u201d waged by the opposition as the reason for his abrupt exit. \u201cThe baseless attacks from the very first day of my swearing-in thrust me into the harsh reality of politics,\u201d he said. Addressing accusations tied to the \u2018Apollon\u2019 firm case, he emphasised his acquittal by a criminal court in 2013, which cleared him of all related charges. \u201cSince then, under successive governments, I have faced no further accusations\u2014so this is much ado about nothing,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Doxiadis explained that his resignation was driven by a desire to avoid prolonged disputes and protect both the government and his former post from what he called a \u201cwitch hunt.\u201d \u201cI do not want to waste my life in such conflicts,\u201d he stated, citing personal peace and the public good as motivating factors.<\/p>\n
Expressing gratitude to Mitsotakis for the \u201chonorary proposal\u201d to serve in a role critical to Greece\u2019s future, Doxiadis lamented that \u201cpolitical toxicity\u201d had stifled his ability to contribute. His departure underscores the challenges active citizens face in navigating Greece\u2019s polarised political landscape.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
