Criticism of the Prime Minister on the matter of Attica Bank but also for energy accuracy, exercises with his notice o SYRIZA-PS.

On the matter of Attica Bank he states: “Approximately ten days have passed since the President of SYRIZA PS, Stefanos Kasselakis, brought to the surface the damage to the Greek public deal of Attica Bank and today we finally heard Kyriakos Mitsotakis talking about it, but without answering the following simple question: Why is the State, having paid 950 million euros from 2021, now limited to 35%, while private individuals, giving only 263 million euros, now acquire 58% of the bank? He avoids any answer because he himself is well aware that this particular merger, with the blessings of the Financial Stability Fund, constitutes an extremely damaging act for the State and the interests of Greek taxpayers”.

Continuing the critique he argues that “in his “Sunday sermon” Mr. Mitsotakis insisted on the outmoded narrative of supposedly ‘imported’ energy precision, trying once again to deceive consumers who will very quickly find themselves in despair, as his announcement to subsidize electricity bills will it seems to concern a discount of 6-7 Euros on bills of 125 Euros… It is of course known that the government is doing everything it can to avoid upsetting its “friends”, as was the case with the refinery cartel, where while it has the possibility to tax based on the Commission up to 90% (as proposed by SYRIZA) of excess profits, taxes for the 2nd time only 33%”.

It recalls the positions of SYRIZA which “has already proposed, since May, the establishment of a Mechanism to monitor and prevent excess profits in electricity markets and a 5% ceiling on the profit margin of these companies. In addition, he has also proposed the establishment of a special discount on the supply of electricity products for the beneficiary farmers and breeders, at 50% of the final basic price of electricity supply, with the aim of retaining the products of primary production”.

In closing, he accuses “the government of Kyriakos Mitsotakis of continuing to do very little and with a long delay, having reached the vast majority of citizens now to their limits”. ​
