Potami party: Greeks continue to pay the price of populism

Greeks continue to pay the price of the government’s populism, Potami party said in a press release on Thursday, commenting on the measures included in the omnibus bill on prior actions being discussed in the parliament plenum.

“In Greece we continue to pay dearly the price of populism ... the cuts in pensions are not only the result of an aging population and the evasion in the payment of contributions; it is mostly the obligatory solution of a government that cannot and - from what it appears - doesn’t want to create jobs,” Potami said.
