This way, we carry on ensuring quality in military education, and actively prove that our policy combines institutional modernization to the welfare of our personnel".

Deputy Minister of Education, Religious Affairs and Sports Nikos Papaioannou stated:

"We are modernizing one of the most critical tools for the support of students in our public universities, ensuring greater transparency and equal access to knowledge. With the said joint decision, we are expanding for the first time the right to free supply of textbooks through the information system "EUDOXUS" to the cadets in Higher and Superior Military Educational Institutes as well, thus filling a gap that was there for decades. The support to the student/cadet is a firm commitment of this Government, and we carry on implementing it with specific, operating steps".
