  • [01] Tsipras: We will lead Greece out of the crisis

    "We will lead Greece out of the crisis," Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras on Sunday said in an interview with Documento newspaper.

    "There is no other choice. Either this government will succeed or the aid programmes will totally fail," he explained and added: "The compromise we have agreed on is fair in principle and socially viable."

    Tsipras underlined that "we will succeed even some creditors and vested interests wish for the opposite."

    The Prime Minister reassured that there are no additional measures, but a package of positive and negative measures with no fiscal impact and reiterated his commitment "not one euro more of austerity."

    Asked on the leader of the main opposition New Democracy, he said that Kyriakos Mitsotakis bet once again on the failure of the negotiation regardless of the fact that this woul entail the failure of the country.

    [02] The more the government delays, the harsher the agreement will be, ND's Georgiadis tells ANA

    The programme review must be concluded, main opposition New Democracy (ND) vice president Adonis Georgiadis on Sunday said in an interview with the Athens Macedonian News Agency (ANA).

    He also said that if ND leader Kyriakos Mitsotakis was prime minister, the programme review will have been concluded earlier and with less measures.

    Asked if the programme review can be concluded by March 20 deadline, he said he was particularly cautious. However, he said that nobody in New Democracy claimed that the review will not be concluded.

    However, he stressed that the more the government delays, the harsher the agreement will be.

    Moreover, he cleared out that New Democracy has not linked the elections with the programme review and explained that the reason why they are asking for elections is because they consider that the prime minister cannot take the country out of the impasse.

    Finally, he reiterated that the main opposition will not vote for additional measures.
