  • [01] Interior Min. Voutsis: There can be policies that will counterbalance the painful measures

    ANA/MPA---"The way has opened after hard and painful negotiations but the people trust Tsipras (Alexis, Prime Minister) and the government" stated Interior Minister Nikos Voutsis on Tuesday referring to the deal with the partners. He noted that there can be policies that will counterbalance these painful social measures. That's SYRIZA's wager, that's the wager of this government'.

    He also said "The difficult and bad agreement worries me, but we will support it and the prime minister that took the responsibility knows it. We will all take the responsibility to support an agreement to which we must find social anti-measures that will give a perspective to the people to avoid a further humanitarian crisis"

    [02] ANEL leader Kammenos: We support the government

    ANA/MPA---Independent Greeks (ANEL) leader Panos Kammenos stated on Tuesday that "what happened in Europe was a coup d'etat. The Greek prime minister was blackmailed to agree on a text totally different of what agreed at the political leaders meeting" he said speaking to the press after the meeting of ANEL's parliamentary group.

    "The coup d'etat continues in Greece. Some wish the government to fall and to bring a government not selected by the Greek people. We will not allow a coup d'etat. The government has the Greek people's mandate" added Kammenos.

    "Independent Greeks support the government. We will vote in parliament the measures agreed at the political leaders' meeting" he clarified.

    [03] Productive Reconstruction Min Lafazanis' statement on the agreement

    ANA/MPA---Productive Reconstruction Minister Panagiotis Lafazanis in a statement on Tuesday called the government and Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras "at the ultimate moment, to take back the agreement before the final decision is taken in parliament".

    Lafazanis said that the government's agreement with the institutions is "unacceptable" and a radical party as SYRIZA and a fighting government that promised the cancellation of the memorandums and the austerity does not worth to bear the cost.

    The so-called partners said Lafazanis is first of all the German establishment "treated our country as if it was their colony and as ruthless blackmailers and "economic murderers" and with this "deal the people's mandate and the 'proud NO' of the Greek people in the referendum is cancelled".

    This agreement may pass in parliament with the contribution of New Democracy, PASOK and Potami deputies' votes, noted Lafazanis underlining that "it will not pass from the people that will cancel it in practice with unity and struggles".

    According to Lafazanis, Greece had and has an alternative solution and concluded "the creditors' dilemma compromise or disaster is fake and has collapsed in the people's conscience".
