Sakellaridis: Gov't reforms list does not include cutbacks promised by Samaras
The government's list of reforms "does not include recession measures, in other words, cutbacks which the Samaras government had committed to" through an email by then finance minister Gikas Hardouvelis, government spokesman Gavriil Sakellaridis told Sunday's (29/03) Avghi newspaper, adding that the list "entirely opposes the logic of memorandums."
Sakellaridis said that the reforms list the economy officials drew up "can become the basis of a mutually beneficial agreement for us and the partners," meaning the creditors of Greece.
The government, he claimed, had managed within two months to change the climate in Greek society.
He also said that it was promoting the licensing of television channels "in order to put some order in the radio and television sector and allow the state to collect what it has a right to."
As to the former public broadcaster ERT, replaced by current Nerit, he said it is a matter of weeks before it is re-established.
