Health Min Kikilias says there will be no increase in medicine prices in 2020

Health Minister Vassilis Kikilias met with Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Tuesday at the Maximos mansion.

After the meeting, Kikilias announced that prices for medicine will not increase in 2020.

"The prime minister had said before the elections: 'the best medicine at the best price'," said Kikilias, adding that the health ministry is implementing this commitment, with zero increases but also reductions of up to 7 percent on medicine prices.

"It is a very important initiative that shows the government's social face," said Kikilias
