Ragoussis: “Some did not want the reforms”

Yannis Ragoussis, the Deputy Defense minister, accused many PASOK central committee members for putting up barriers against the reform processes destined to safeguard the country’s future, thus halting its salvation and finally driving the Papandreou government over the cliff.

“This uncertainty is a result of the deeds of all those who were working from their posts in the previous PASOK government, in parliament and in society and did everything in their power so that the progressive reforms which would make the country stand on its feet could not take place”.

According to Ragoussis, Greece’s problem are the results of the recession; that is, unemployment, despair and income decrease, results seen because of the incomplete policies the party had been following until 2009 and the uncertainty which Papandreou allowed to spread across Greece following the October 26th decisions.

Lastly, the minister underlined that: “No new dawn will be seen if doubts that Greece is in danger are not wiped out. The political system is not going to exit the dead end it has entered or the scourge of unreliability if the notion that we say one thing but we end up acting differently is not buried”.
