Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis announced the restriction of social media access for children under 15 starting January 1, 2027. As he stated in a video posted on social media, beginning with the viral "6-7" movement, the regulation will take effect in the summer of 2026, and Greece will be among the first countries to undertake this initiative. Explaining the reasoning behind the decision for this measure, which was broadcast as breaking news by major international media, Mitsotakis said that in recent years he has spoken with many parents, and they all tell him the same thing: their child doesn't sleep well, gets stressed easily, and is constantly on their phone. 'Greece will be among the first countries to undertake this initiative. Now I am sure that many younger ones will be angry with me. If I were your age, I might feel the same way, but our role is not to be liked. But even if you disagree, I just want you to think about it and discuss it with your friends. If something makes us feel stressed, worse, or less good than we actually are, then it's worth putting a brake on it. Our goal is not to distance you from technology, which can be a source of inspiration, knowledge, and creation,' said Mitsotakis.
