ND leader Samaras gives interview to 'Imerisia' newspaper

Main opposition New Democracy party leader Antonis Samaras, in an interview with the
newspaper "Imerisia", rules out the sale of public property and insists that the government must proceed with its utilisation.
Samaras reiterated that soon he will be presenting his updated plan on an exit from the crisis and added that his proposal on the utilisation of the public sector's real estate is compatible with measures to boost growth, and indeed at no cost, as well as a decrease in tax rates.
The ND leader further said that Greece must become more competitive to enable convergence with other economies and stressed that ND is prepared in the event that Prime Minister George Papandreou decides to lead the country to early elections.
"Early elections are up to the prime minister to decide. In any case, we are prepared," Samaras said.
