For this reality we are fighting. From savings I try to improve staff financial earnings. It is not the usual model of the Greek State. But the usual is to go to the National Accounting Office and to ask for resources. I try with savings to find the money. A piece of savings go to finance the ED mortgage. We are looking for resources from utilizing property that is not necessary operational».
