Indirect announcement of measures in June

Government spokesman Pantelis Kapsis announced new measures, saying that in June they will need to discuss the measures that will be needed in 2013 and 2014.

Speaking on NET, he said that in order for the Eurogroup agreement to bear fruit, Greece has a lot of things to do.

To a relevant question he replied that the work of the following governments will focus on what changes need to be effected to render our economy productive.

"In June we will have to discuss the 2013 budget and in June 2013, the budget of 2014. And their argument is what? That 'if you make structural changes, if you deregulate professions, if the market operates smoothly, if you drop your prices​​' - and we must turn our focus on dropping prices because it is unthinkable to reduce wages and pensions and not drop prices - so if we make the structural changes without hesitation, without delay, we will reduce the pressure on wages and pensions," was Finance minister Venizelos’ reply on Mega TV, when asked if new measures will be required in June.

The LAOS president was clearer. "In June we will have to take new measures of 5 billion euros," said George Karatzaferis on a morning TV show on ANT1.
