No group has been left helpless and will not be left helpless in the face of price increases, said government spokesman Giannis Oikonomou, starting today’s briefing of political authors.
Mr. Economou said that within the week an additional budget of two billion euros will be submitted, in order to continue the support to households and businesses. He added that in order to ensure the adequacy of goods, the platform for inventories of goods is opened.
The government spokesman said price spikes and speculative trends were causing unprecedented price hikes and that Golgotha was a daily occurrence for both families and businesses.
The government, he continued, is constantly trying to reduce the effects of the price hikes: “No group has been left helpless and will not be left helpless,” he said.
He added that the government is still in control of developments and is trying to keep up with the times. “We are trying to find solutions,” he said, referring to the Russian president’s demand. Putin to pay Russia in rubles for gas.
The coming days will be difficult and the risk of prolonged instability is more and more probable, he said and added that the truth should not be hidden and every politician is judged by how much truth he can endure.
“Our interventions will be focused on the most vulnerable and with respect for budgetary limits,” he said, adding that we have reserves and will be on the side of the vulnerable, exhausting every tool.
When asked about specific interventions, such as payment of PPC bills of the most vulnerable, replied that specific things will be announced by the Prime Minister.
Asked if Greece agrees with the request for more sanctions against Russia after the events in the city of Bouka, the government spokesman noted that what happened is sad and goes beyond what is inhumane in a war. “We have to weigh this and in any case we will be fully in line with our partners,” he concluded.
