Staikouras: The official opposition changed its position on the issue of reducing ENFIA

by

For change of attitude of official opposition in its subject reduction of ENFIAwhich provides for its provision bill for Capital Marketspoke the Minister of Finance Christos Staikouras. “Mr. Tsipras said that he would vote for it, while later Mrs. Ahtsioglou said that they would vote ‘present'”, Mr. Staikouras noted.

“Today we heard from him leader of official opposition and Mrs. Ahtsioglou, that one third of the aid goes to those who had additional tax “, said Mr. Staikouras, who read a statement of the MP (2/2/2022) that the” lion’s portion “goes to abolition of additional tax and “today says a third.” [..] The official opposition took the additional tax that we are abolishing, but it had not noticed that we are imposing a new tax or that we are changing the discounts on the total property to the high incomes. “Because that means social justice in practice,” he said.

He described, in fact, as “a top inconsistency what we saw today”: Mr. Tsipras he said he would vote the layout for ENFIA and then we heard that you will vote “present” said Mr. Staikouras referring to a previous position of the Head of Finance of SYRIZA, Efi Ahtsioglou. He even quoted Mr. Tsipras from the minutes, according to which he states: “And you are talking to us about ENFIA and you are doing tricks to me here, if I will vote for it. This is nice magic! If I will vote for it! Obviously the last one. euros that will come and relieve the Greek citizen, we will vote for it. “. So, the Minister of Finance commented, in essence, on the proposal of ENFIA, Mr. Tsipras replied that he would vote for him. And two hours later, we hear that SYRIZA will not vote, (and that) it will vote “present”. “You have been irreparably exposed to the lower income classes and the middle class, to those whom we serve over time and steadily,” said Mr. Staikouras.

Earlier, and in a question from the Minister of Finance to the lady Ahtsioglou if the SYRIZA will vote or not the provision for its reduction ENFIA, because there are, as she said, contradictory reports from the leader of the official opposition and from SYRIZA MPs, Ms. Ahtsioglou said that all these days “we have stated our main objection to the architecture of your intervention, which exhausts most of the of the intervention for the benefit of higher incomes, (and which) is in our opinion disproportionate “. “Not that there is no alleviation of low incomes,” said Ms. Ahtsioglou and continued: From this approach, what we intend to do is, in principle, we vote against this approach, and we stated it with our position on principle. Where we will vote “present” is in the two articles that introduce the scales and discounts, and “present”, because, at the same time that some low-income citizens are favored, high-income citizens are favored many times over. When you make such a choice, and bring it into the article itself, we can not vote in favor of your approach, in favor of higher incomes, nor can we reject any help that lower incomes could have, which , indeed, due to the increase in fair values, if there was no intervention, not the one you make, they would be burdened.

Finally, he noted that Mr. Tsipras was placed – and I have to come back, because he himself asked me to come back – for the meters for accuracy. That was his position. He said that we will vote for them, because, although we disagree with their philosophy, even if one euro goes to the world, we will vote for it.
