[01] ND leader visits Crete, slams government 'inadequacy'
ANA-MPA -- Main opposition New Democracy leader Antonis Samaras on Sunday
slammed the government for "inadequacy," in statements after arriving at
'Nikos Kazantzakis' airport in Iraklio, Crete. Samaras is visiting the
city in order to attend an ND party meeting due to begin at 18:30.
Samaras stressed that he was on the island to discuss issues important
to Crete and expressed hope that projects launched under his government
would not stall due to the present government's "inadequacy, which is
visible wherever one turns". Regarding the ongoing negotiations with
Greece's creditors, Samaras said no one could know how they will turn out
until a specific text is produced, adding that ND's hopes were for a good
agreement quickly, so that the country does not lose the growth momentum
that was beginning to emerge. "Unfortunately, this is the big problem. We
are seeing the tendency to growth becoming converted to a trend toward
recession. This is all that is worst. Especially in areas such as Crete,
where the potential for growth is more than visible," he added.
