Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis speaks to journalists, in the aftermath of Storm Daniel in central Greece, in Larissa, Greece, September 8, 2023. REUTERSPIX: Greece will push ahead with state reforms to boost economic growth and offer relief measures to those hit by natural disasters, without risking the country’s fiscal progress, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said on Saturday.
Mitsotakis was re-elected in June. He had postponed his annual speech on economic policy by a week to Sept 16 due to the impact of storm Daniel, Greece’s most intense since records began in 1930. Mitsotakis outlined reforms across the state to improve ministry coordination, tackle tax evasion, bolster the health sector and support families, youth and their access to affordable housing.
In the financial sector, Mitsotakis said Greece’s financial transaction tax of 0.2% would be slashed by half.
