But they had two rate hikes in twenty 26 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 1: sixteen this year, but they still had four rate hikes 27 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 1: penciled in for both eighteen.

Yana's welcome to taking Stock. It's good 93 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 1: to be here. Thank you very much for your limitation. First, 94 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: I just want you to briefly tell our listeners a 95 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: little bit about you. You fought in the Greek resistance. 96 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: Your father was a prominent politician. You have been ahead 97 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 1: of the Greek American Chamber of Commerce. You bring a 98 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: lot to this new political party. Um, you're right, that 99 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: goes there for a few years advising also the Greek 100 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 1: prime ministers about the economic quote that they should follow. 101 00:05:56,360 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: And because of the fact that they wouldn't listen to 102 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: the logic of changing the economic model of the country 103 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 1: and synchronize the country, synchronized the economy and make reforms everywhere, 104 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: that's why we decided to take the lead ourselves, the citizen, 105 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: and that's why we went to the people, you know, 106 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: the first of all to let them know what happened. 107 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: And we got into this massive situation who is responsible 108 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: for all these for decades and also what can we 109 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: do now in order to get to get the country 110 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: out of the mess and also gain regain our credibility 111 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: because this is really one of the major problems that 112 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: has no credibility to the markets, no credibility to the creditors. 113 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: So we have to do something like this UH in 114 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 1: order to show that there are strengths in the Greek society, 115 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: there are people who actually want to help the country 116 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: and want the economy to UH built again. Speak if 117 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: you can, if if you have any details about the 118 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: new economic moral that you are proposing for Greece. UM. 119 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 1: What we are saying is that we have first of 120 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: all to make radical reforms everywhere. We have to establish 121 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: a steady, a stable UH tax system, UH, combat corruption, 122 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: which is important UH institute initiate a government everywhere, because 123 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: when we initiate the government, then we make we put 124 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: a stop between citizen and the public administration because everything 125 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: is automatic. So this is really another way to combat 126 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: corruption and also regain the competitiveness of the economy by 127 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: opening the market. UM. The Greek economy today, I dare 128 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: say that it is the last Soviet type economy in 129 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: Europe and this has to change, and we have to 130 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,679 Speaker 1: redirect our production to the production of internationally tradeable goods 131 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: and also attract investment. But how do you attract investment. 132 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: You attract investment only by creating the proper business environment. 133 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: Unemployment still at almost that's on par with the United 134 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: States and the Great Depression. So we could say that 135 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: in that way, Greece still is in a depression, still 136 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: struggling to take out of that hole. What where is 137 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: the Greek populace now? Because it was a very very 138 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 1: contentious issue one at the beginning of the crisis. In 139 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: order to qualify for debt relief, Greek government workers had 140 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: to work more, you know, not get the one or 141 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: two months off when the pension plans couldn't be as 142 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: rich and you had to retire sooner. Are people ready 143 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: to accept your new model? Yes, they are. It will 144 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,839 Speaker 1: be a difficult task for the government to deal with 145 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: the employment issues. First of all, let me tell you 146 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: that already the salaries now are very low and they 147 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: make the economy competitive from the employment point of view. 148 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: The cost of the employment however, Um, the creditors are 149 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: asking far, far more than what we have done so far. 150 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 1: They are asking for flexibility in the labor market. Um. 151 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: But when we're talking about about depression, I have to 152 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: tell you that for us, in order to face the 153 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: unemployment is so we have to realize that we are 154 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: not only in a depression, we are in structural collapse. Uh. 155 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: And that's why I say that we need to create 156 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: new directions for our production line. We don't produce anymore, 157 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: and we need to produce in order to face the challenge. 158 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: We need also to have public infrastructure works all over 159 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,559 Speaker 1: the country in order to create new jobs for the 160 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: people and after that incentivize the private sector by new incentives. 161 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: All this will definitely make unemployment lower. Uh. And this 162 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: is in full contradiction with the model that the Greek 163 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: governments follow the last six years. They are concentrating more 164 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:52,559 Speaker 1: on fiscal consolidation than growth, and they sacrifice growth on 165 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 1: the temple of the physical consolidation. There should be a balance, 166 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: and I believe that I MF believes also this. It 167 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: has to be balanced. And of course we have to 168 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: see and put as a first priority, uh, the reprofiling 169 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: of the Greek debt, because if we don't deal with 170 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: the public debt first as a necessary condition for growth, UH, 171 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: then I think that we are building on the sound 172 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 1: just quickly. Um. The word economy actually comes from Greek 173 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: or economia, and that means household management.
