ATHENS — Citizen Protection Minister Michailis Chrysochoidis on Tuesday referred to the drawing up of a special plan in tourist areas, especially on Mykonos, Santorini and the Attica region, with the creation of new police stations and more staff and technological equipment, during an address to the online event "Tourism and Safety" co-organised by the ministry and the Hellenic Police with the support of the British Embassy in Athens.
