The characteristics of the package of measures to be announced by the prime minister at the TIF were described by the government spokesman Paul Marinakis, noting that the reductions will be permanent and not exclude any citizen.
“Keep four elements, because we are a day before. Will concern all citizens. The set of workers, of pensioners, That is, private employees, civil servants, freelancers, pensioners. So no one will be excluded from the benefit, either through the less withholding they will have on their salary or if they are freelancers with the least tax they will pay at the end of the year. One is this, “Mr. Marinakis, Speaking to Alpha Radio and journalist George Eugenides.
All citizens will benefit from the reductions, whether they are employees or retirees, and emphasis will be placed on families with children, for obvious reasons for supporting the family and dealing with demographic as much as possible.
Support of the district
‘These measures will also have a support character of Greek Region. And the fourth I can tell you is that these measures are 1.5 billion euros, that is exactly what we have said, “he noted, explaining that it will not” open the pouch, with money that will not exist. ” The exact amount will be announced by the Prime Minister. However, the government spokesman made it clear that what is not written for 2 or more billion euros were not valid. After all, he said, revenue has increased as a result of the growth and treatment of tax evasion and not because the government has increased taxes.
In addition to the general announcements, there will be special care “for our people – our fellow citizens who either by geographical or other criteria, such as demographic, which I put you as a dimension, they will have a greater need for support. ” The goal is “as we grow old, as we collect money, which are not from taxes above, to refund them with permanent characteristics to a logical consistent in the ideology of the faction and the prime minister’s personally, the liberal ideology, which speaks of tax cuts rather than a backlash. Therefore, fewer taxes mean more income to address the consequences of increased cost of life. “
Total tax reform
According to the government spokesman, the measures will not be indirectly concerned taxeswhile they are not a “basket” but a comprehensive tax reform. “They are measures that are part of a broader, big, brave, without – again – to go beyond what we have said about the money, so as not to misunderstand, tax reform. The focus of changes, yes, is direct taxes. On his days Kyriakou Mitsotakis, As prime minister, more than 22 indirect taxes have been reduced, along with the immediate, but [τώρα] We will focus on reducing direct taxes, “he said.
THE Paul Marinakis He also said that a second four -year period has differences from one first and said that the Kyriakos Mitsotakis He is the first prime minister, a second four -year post -political, which demonstrates the corresponding superiority over his opponents, but given the deterioration, which exists after so many years. “I see it as follows, we have also seen it in the European elections: there is a part of our fellow citizens, who generally supported us in the 2023, 2019 elections, either timeless supporters or new supporters, who are critically awaiting aside, to see results, to see any more mistakes, to seem more. Here, then, I take it as yet another opportunity we have -the previous ones we have achieved and won, without meaning that the world was completely satisfied. Obviously, he was satisfied with some we did. It still has demands- to show that the country is going forward, “he added.
He said that no one disagrees that there are problems and that the government is trying to increase income as much as possible and inflation.
“And the opposition says,” Give steps, give it one, give it the other. ” But we have two essential differences. The first is that we say how we will do it, that is, where to find the money, find it and do it. And the second is that what we are saying, we do it. Because a big difference from Kyriakos Mitsotakis from other prime ministers or opposition leaders, because everyone was going to the TIF step is that what he says every year does, “he added.
For inflation
Mr. Marinakis Regarding the tax reform, he said that it was coming to 72 reductions in direct and indirect taxes.
“This government, like no other European government, did not create the crisis of inflation, did not cause the crisis, as we lived 10 years ago with the unnecessary 120 billion memorandum. But it is obliged to face this crisis, like other governments. We admit this need, we admit it by taking measures, but, as you realize, yes, there is an elementary declining, but we are still not in phase, what we call deflation, “he said.
“Greece has a government that grows the pie, that is, it creates revenue conditions, reducing taxes. As long as we have a government, such as the government of Kyriakos Mitsotakis, we will only see measures that will increase citizens’ income. Our country has risen an important uphill route. It has not reached where citizens want, but they are in better shape in all areas. They need a lot more, “he added.
For Alexis Tsipras
Regarding the forthcoming speech at Alexis Tsipras’ Vellidio, he said that every citizen in our democratic system has the right to have his dreams and plans. “History has written and recorded, as well as any former prime minister, Mr Tsipras, as a prime minister who has been captured by the citizens and as the leader of the opposition and brought out his policies. I think it is much more important to the citizens who will hear about the present and the future by the Prime Minister, an account of what has been done in these years. Kyriakos Mitsotakis is still in these terms to date, talking to society and is not used to talking to the past. A past, which – I say again – has been evaluated, based on the real facts, “he said.
For the Mafia of Crete and Panos Kammenos
Regarding the so -called “Mafia of Crete”, Mr Marinakis said that we are talking about events five to ten years ago and that every politician, every prime minister makes his choices, persons and politicians.
“For them it is judged and not for the beautiful words he can say, as beautiful as they sound. Among the key choices, critical choices, basically the basic choice, was Mr Kammenos. So, more value than criticizing Mr Kammenos – the sound of the sounds we all hear – to remind citizens, because, you know it’s a big deal not to forget, it is even greater to move forward and not to talk about the past just. Both have value. Well, Mr Tsipras has made his choices and strategic choices. With whom will you govern your country, with whom will you manage the country, are the top choices for a politician. I don’t think we all have this opportunity every day. In a few people, the world gives this historical and very honorable command. So these options are specific, they have a name and we have a duty to remind them. But again, this government will neither succeed nor fail on the basis of who will have an opponent. This government will be evaluated for the deliverables, for me this is the key word in relation to the lives of citizens, “he noted.
