Έ. Ahtsioglou: ‘Necessary regulatory and tax measures for accuracy’

“The government can neither and does not want to take the critical measures that will protect workers, households, small and medium-sized enterprises. Social necessity imposes the demand for political change,” said Efi Ahtsioglu.

“The problem of accuracy is major, the harmonized inflation rate reaches 10.7% according to Eurostat – well above the Eurozone average – and the national index is expected to be higher,” he added (ERT1), noting that “the “The government has a great responsibility for how to manage the situation, because for 9 months it shows serious inaction, without critical regulatory interventions at the core of the problem and without tax interventions to alleviate the citizens.”

Ms. Ahtsioglu stressed that “we insist on the need to impose a ceiling on the wholesale and retail price of electricity and a ceiling on the profits of energy companies, which accumulate profits all this time. An intervention that has no budgetary weight and the government does not do it.” “Also,” fiscal interventions are needed, with a reduction in VAT on fuel and VAT on food, which would significantly help the daily life of the majority of citizens “, but” the government is making budget allocation options that favor the least “.

At the same time, he stressed that “initially the government underestimated the extent of the problem and then came to Europe to ask for its intervention. Each state must first take measures of protection within itself and EU decisions come in the alternative”.

Regarding the government’s policy in higher education, he said that “it is a strategic choice of ND to downgrade the public university” and “lately it has chosen to escalate and impose violence within the university, on issues that should be settled by the university community. with freedom and democracy within it “, in fact” legitimized the serious injury of a student by a police officer and poses false dilemmas, trying to feed a conservative audience and leading things in very dangerous directions “.

Concluding, Ms. Ahtsioglu pointed out that “we disagree with the deployment of military equipment that involves the country on the front lines of the war in Ukraine” and noted that “the government does not have a structured foreign policy, which will allow us to have contacts in various levels and not attachment and absolute devotion to the US chariot, where we cede almost everything to them without receiving anything that looks like in terms of tangible results. ”
