Greece: The Greek opposition leader, Alexis Tsipras stated that SYRIZA had managed to get the country out of the memorandums, adjust the debt, leave 37 billion euro in public funds, to achieve 8 consecutive quarters of positive growth rates.
As per Tsipras, All that was left for Mr. Mitsotakis to promise is the investment grade. He promised it before the 2019 elections, he promised it all his term. Instead of investment grade, the public debt of 46 billion leaves a bigger one. euro, the private debt is larger by 40 billion euro and greater by 10 times the current balance deficit.
With a sound administration in the public economy and also by changing the social policy mix we can achieve the investment grade at the same time but at the same time the Greek society can breathe.
Mr. Varoufakis opened up a topic that is not about reality, it concerns his own obsessions. These positions on currency cannot be up for negotiation or debate. The problem with the Greek economy today is not the currency, but the fact that the currency we have in our pockets is not enough.
For how much longer can we hang on to SYRIZA bamboo stick? It happened in 2012, it happened in 2015. 2023 is an oxymoron. But it’s not something original for Mr. Mitsotaki. In 2018, when we took the country out of the memorandum, it said we signed a 4th memorandum. He’s telling the same lies now.
Greece has unfortunately been removed from European normality in these four years of Mr. Mitsotaki. When we have 10 billions euros in direct assignments and closed tenders to days, when in this country the average businessman knows that in order to get a project he has to go through the private office inside Maximus. This is reality and whoever can deny me. Many will want, few will be able.
Unfortunately the investor knows that corruption and the black economy reigns.
The country’s image has worsened with the illegal surveillance scandal. A prerequisite for economic growth is respect for the rule of law, democracy, user administration rules and the fight against corruption.
This time we are not only targeting the weak, we are targeting the middle class. To those who have been able to repay their loan – certainly not when funds want to take 3 and 4 times the value they purchased the loan, as is happening today. Middle class should be given a chance to keep their wealth.
