Minister: Greece has the highest rate of increase of available income
Greece is actually among the European Union countries where available income is growing fastest, government spokesperson Pavlos Marinakis commented on Monday in a radio interview with journalists Takis Hatzis and Athinaida Nega, ANA reports.
"I hear constant criticism from the opposition, which expresses itself by presenting half the truth. Greece, it says, occupies one of the last positions for the citizens' available income. We have never denied that Greece found itself at the lowest point as regards the citizens' available income in previous years. The other half of the truth, however, is that in the last five years, Greece is the country with the highest rate of increase of available income in Europe," Marinakis said.
He predicted that the present government would be more resilient than other governments in their second term, saying that he actually hoped for "an alternative proposal and an opposition with which there can be a political dialogue on specific positions and costed proposals."
