“The tactic of the Mitsotakis government, through its representative, P. Marinakis, to make the explosive increases in electricity prices “invisible”, serves exclusively the interests of the energy cartel, to the establishment of which he has had a decisive contribution”says SYRIZA PS in a statement.

He emphasizes that “however, inflated tariffs that are suffocating households and businesses cannot be hidden, despite government propaganda”.

SYRIZA adds that “the same applies, of course, to the electricity subsidy refunds that the government is asking for from a number of small and medium-sized businesses”while commenting that “in this regard, in addition to the well-known speculation about the “populism” of SYRIZA, Mr. Marinakis had the audacity to attempt to refute even the businessmen themselves, who are rightly protesting the slander.”

As an ultimatum, in its announcement, SYRIZA comments that the government representative “celebrated, during his introductory statement, the upgrade of the credit rating of the Greek State by the rating agency Scope Ratings” and calls on him to explain: “how to deal with the continuous upgrades from rating agencies and the booming economy that no foreign investors were interested in ATTICA Bank? In fact, from the moment when the… broken ones will be paid for by the public…”.
