I just love it! When former ministers come out and criticize the government about its economic policy. Former ministers who did nothing to pull the break and stop the country’s vehicle from speeding all the way downhill to economic disaster and decline.
Yiannos Papantoniou, Minister for National Economy & Finance 1994-2001, foresees with some decades delay that the bankruptcy is coming close…
Anyway, speaking to VIMA fm, Papantoniou claimed that while the danger of bankruptcy approaches, the government will not manage to take the country out of the crisis with what it does.
He stressed the necessity of boosting the development. Something also said by the my 93-year-old godmother and my 15 year-old nephew.
Papantoniou was expelled from now governing party PASOK in 2006. In the 90’s he was criticized for the bubble of Athens Stock Exchange and later for failing to protect the public interest in the SIEMENS/OTE/C4I issue.
