ND Spokesman Interview to Sunday Edition of 'Real news'




















Main opposition New Democracy (ND) charged that "scenarios of co-governance" are being spread by "those who fear a self-sufficient ND government and (ND leader Antonis) Samaras as a self-sufficient prime minister", in an interview by party press spokesman Yannis Michelakis appearing in the Sunday edition of RealNews daily. 
 
He said that ND will go to elections, whenever they take place, with the target of self-sufficiency, so as to be able to implement, without delay, a policy that the people will have been fully informed of in advance. 
 
Michelakis accused the government of putting forward "coercive dilemmas" and "elections dilemmas" such as the calls for passing of the Medium-Term Fiscal Adjustment programme with an increased majority of 180 votes in the 300-member parliament. 
 
He stressed that Samaras cannot be coerced, and warned that if the government even thinks of coercing ND, "it will realise that our party cannot be coerced", while he also charged that "the government is attempting to conceal its inefficiency" with the political consensus it is calling for. 
 
The ND spokesman further warned that the government is planning even harsher and more painful measures, stressing that Samaras "will never say 'yes' to incorrect policy".
