[01] ND interim leader Plakiotakis accuses PM Tsipras of cheating the
Greek people
New Democracy (ND) interim leader Ioannis Plakiotakis late on Saturday
lashed out at the government and Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras
accusing him of trying "to cheat and transfer the responsibility for
the failure of his policy as he is faced with the consequences of the
third memorandum he has signed."
"The government's attempt to 'fiddle' with the budget figures and
fabricate false images is spectacular," he underlined. He made special
reference to the recapitalization of the Greek banks, saying that "it
is a huge economic disaster."
"The budget is based on tax increases rather than cuts in spending,
undermining local production and destroying the chances of young people
to find a job. The first leftist budget includes 3.2 billion euro new
taxes, it is socially unjust and does not help growth. In general it
showcases SYRIZA's political fraud," he added.
