Besides the vote on the program as a whole, there were five individual votes regarding the following fields:

  • The extraction and co-exploitation, together with problematic regimes and multinational corporations, of the hydrocarbon in the Eastern Mediterranean, the Aegean, the Cretan or the Ionian Sea, with the vote turning out NO by 87,08% in favour of Green Economy and geopolitical stability
