“It’s almost an insult to those who were hurt by SYRIZA to talk about “left trees” again”
To and to “Mismatched» spoke the head of the economic office of the prime minister, Alexis Pateliswith the discussion on the economy and the programs of the parties monopolizing the interest.
Initially, referring to Stefanos Kasselakis, Mr. Patelis pointed out “what a pity it is that a young person, instead of having fresh ideas, makes you think that you are in 2010 with “there is money” or in 2015 with “with a law and an article”, to add:
“It is almost an insult to those who suffered during SYRIZA that we are talking about “left trees” again almost 10 years later. It’s about how you move forward. In 2019 unemployment was at 17%, today it is at 10%. Accuracy is “the elephant in the room”. Inflation may be cumulatively lower in our country than the European average, but the question is different: if faced with a problem you give gradual solutions or say you solve everything with a magic wand”.
“Many people do not pay attention to the program of Mr. Kasselakis, because they do not believe that it will ever be implemented”
Afterwards, Mr. Patelis underlined that in the Prime Minister’s letter to the future Commission, the basic request is the prohibition of multinationals from making interventions aimed at unfair competition, posing the question “how can such a letter signed by Alexis Tsipras or Stefanos Kasselakis would they receive it?’
“Kyriakos Mitsotakis has built his credibility with the digital vaccination certificate, with the cap on natural gas prices and of course with the Recovery Fund. On the contrary, many people actually do not pay attention to the program of Mr. Kasselakis, because they do not believe that it will ever be implemented”, he said, characterizing the president of the main opposition “Tsipras 2.0”.
In closing, he made it clear that there is no possibility of reducing VAT on food, saying that “we are not the only country facing the problem of accuracy”, while at the same time referring to the example of Spain:
“In 2019 Spain had lower unemployment than Greece and today it is higher. I say this, because it is important to judge by the result.
