“Instead of submitting proposals costly, they insist on cruel criticism and lies. They learned nothing from recent history. In essence now, the Mitsotaki government has promised since 2019 that it will be returning gradually the development dividend In the social groups that were most affected, especially in the middle class. Rightly, we return what has been deprived of previous years, but without risking the fiscal shielding of the Greek economy we have achieved with Greek citizens and their own sacrifices. ” The above was stressed by the Deputy Minister under the Prime Minister and government spokesman Pavlos Marinakis in an interview with the newspaper Parapolitika.

“Surpluses are not the result of over -taxation, but the result of three factors: the treatment of tax evasion, the creation of jobs and the growth of the economy, with the result that the state has more revenue, without increasing tax rates. The opposition is either unable to understand, or does not understand that the state can have more tax revenue without increasing taxes. In any case, this is the only way for the “pie” to grow and so we can return to society what has been deprived of previous years. ” added.

To a question about whether Measures combined with early elections Mr. Marinakis said: “New Democracy is not waiting for the elections to listen to the needs of society. This is our difference with other parties. It is not surprising that they cannot perceive this difference by pursuing monotonous criticism, without a basis. The elections will take place in 2027 and until then we will try, more and more often, to announce positive news about citizens. “

For the criminality and unnatural The government spokesman said: ‘I start with the Exarchia Saying that according to official data from the Greek Police, since 2019 the thefts in the area decreased by 74%, robberies by 90%the incidents and attacks on police officers by 86% and out of 90 drug cases handled in the area in 2019, in 2024 faced only 3. In the big picture now, in the field of legitimacy, it is evident that within a few years they did not become the whole decades in this country. Finally, it becomes the obvious, to evacuate occupations at the universities, and there is not even an active occupation at the moment. In the stadiums we made bold decisions and made them act and the picture is completely different. Only in 2024 there have been 13,000 arrests for domestic violence, along with the installation of the Panic Button, the aid line on the victims of abuse, the operation of 63 staff of domestic violence. “

“The new Organized Crime Management Directorate, within just 5 months, dismissed 48 criminal organizations and solved 272 cases. Treating crime is one of the most difficult battles and requires constant vigilance. Rest assured that, no matter how many of the opposition are shouting for allegedly “police arbitrariness”, we are not going to take half a step back in the direction of law. “ Mr. Marinakis emphasized.

For the Cooperation Post -election scenarios The government spokesman after saying that the self -contained and stable governments was and will be and will Continue to be a key position of ND added “Think, when the prime minister in the EU was fighting for the recovery fund and managed to get Greece more money proportional to its GDP, to first have to persuade any of the parties that depreciated the recovery fund. Imagine if Kyriakos Mitsotakis in the midst of the pandemic, he had to talk to another party than those trying to make opposition to an unprecedented crisis, how the economy would support and businesses would not be closed. “

“We have two years ahead to us to prove that We were perfectly consistent For what we promised to the citizens in 2023. Beyond that, the citizens – and only them – will decide in 2027. Especially for PASOK, that with his attitude, his rhetoric and his old age, he reached this position politically and polls. Let’s not cry, then, now over spilled milk » Mr. Marinakis ended.
