«The fact that the government has been constantly supplying the press with a paraphrase of tax reduction shows that the government’s narrative that had reduced taxes collapsed. If the government had actually reduced taxes, we would not have the picture today. It turns out that so far he had over -taxed Greek citizens“, Kostas Tsoukalasin view of the prime minister’s announcements to TIFspeaking to the “Parapolitika FM 90.1” radio.
The PASOK Change Press Spokesman commented that a days ago a study of a systemic credit institution “It has shown that the government’s choices would not honor the tax scales and not touch them in the last many years saved € 800 million by taxing the middle class in 2024 and a billion euros in about 2025». «So it is confirmed by our criticism that this government has not only not reduced taxation, but has increased taxation mainly by affecting the middle class and the popular strata.“, He stressed. He paid the government that it does not intend to touch the unfair indirect taxation, although there are two European guidelines which essentially remain member states to reduce indirect tax rates, VAT. “Does not do“, He said,”Because he thinks that he can continue to pursue a client and voting benefit policy, taking many of the many and giving a little less than he does as he does so far».
Emphasized that in the TIF Nikos Androulakis will present the two central axes of the proposal of PASOK’s change of change: “First, how can we create a serious, powerful state with transparency and accountability that will put an end to customer base and disagreement so that every citizen can trust it and know that his money is not lost. And, secondly, the welfare state and how we can support with social policies for many” Specifically as to the second he said: ‘With support in the private sector, with the restoration of collective agreements where our country is a skies today. In the public sector with the reinstatement of the thirteenth salary, to retirees with the abolition of personal difference, the increase in the reciprocity of the replacement factors, the reinstatement of the EKA and the gradual reduction of the solidarity levy of pensioners. Intervened in the big broadcast of private debt that currently drowns households and businesses. And with support of small and medium -sized entrepreneurship and the creation of financial tools for small and medium -sized enterprises».
On the basis of the above he argued that ‘We have a completely different perception from the neoliberal logic of the government that keeps low income, increases accuracy to collect taxes and earn some cartels and wasting the productive potential of the European Union money.».
Mr Tsoukalas referred to the demographic, describing the central national issue with social implications and recalled that the PASOK president had raised it in December at his meeting with the prime minister as a key field of consensus. He appreciated that the demographic “It is not resolved in a government term or by law and an article, but requires a long -term, cohesive and holistic strategy with a new model of development, productive reconstruction and regional development with a series of social policies to support the family. ” “We did not see the prime minister, and he was committed, to take action in that direction so far“, He commented.
On the subject, he noted, among other things, that PASOK has submitted proposals for demographics for two years that have not been heard and announced that this year’s September 3rd anniversary “will largely have the focus of answering this great national challenge».
Regarding the developments in the Ukrainian issue, PASOK’s spokesman stressed that “If the peace process takes place in essence by legalizing the invasion and possession of a percentage of Ukraine, it creates negative data in relation to international law in general, while our country has also been attacked while Cyprus is still under illegal invasion and possession.». «The fact that we are returning to imperial negotiations with the law of the powerful and the spheres of influence and without the involvement of the UN, NATO and international organizations raises a strong reflection on Europe’s role.“, He stressed.
He drew attention to the government by saying that “it must have an external policy autonomous, always with a compass of international law and obviously with our alliances with the US and with other forces.” “We are a force that has a look at the West but wants an EU a factor of security, peace, stability. That is why we have also disagreed with government policy on how it treats ethnic cleansing in Gaza and in dealing with Turkey’s aggressive policy in a fairly conflicting way.“, He said. Added that ‘It needs a radical change in foreign policy“And how”PASOK has said from the outset that this continuous concession policy in front of a revisionist force produces committed and negative data“And noted:”The government, however, is in a hurry to be royal than the king, to be given everything and at the same time to have a subordinate attitude towards Turkey».
