Debt will be repaid by growth, Mitsotakis promises
"I cannot discount the election result. It would be arrogant to tell citizens that elections are over. We don't know what parties will enter the parliament and whether there will be a strong mandate," main opposition New Democracy (ND) leader Kyriakos Mitsotakis said on Friday in an interview with ANT1 TV.
He underlined that we have to reduce surplus targets and restore credibility. "Markets have already reacted positively and show that they trust us. Debt will be repaid by growth and not over-taxation. I believe that I can persuade our partners for the reduction of the primary surplus targets," he said.
Mitsotakis reiterated that there is no much room for tolerance and we will move into practice as of the following day. "We have the potential to create new prosperity, prosperity for all," he stressed.
"Entrepreneurs realize that the success of a business goes through the happiness of the employees," he noted and added: "I want entrepreneurs to give shares to employees. I will give them motivation to do so."
"We will be strict in the implementation of labour law," he underlined.
Mitsotakis promised that social benefits will not be abolished. "Our first priority will be to boost the minimum guarantee income," he stressed.
Regarding North Macedonia, he said that the name issue was settled because it was part of a broader discussion with the partners. He also said that he would never sign such an agreement concessing the Macedonian identity and language.
However, Mitsotakis pledged to work in order to correct the bad consequences of this agreement.
