a farce well to discuss that ran out of joined by the member of the greek parliament. thank you very much for your time sir now greece has been at the center of political and economic debate and your for wide some time now do you think the european union has done and not how greece out and not enough and not in the right timing and greece was just the weakest link in the in the building and it was some well constructed it is a problem when you promote financial integration without having political integration and i think it's the time for big decisions of the european union not so sure that the political leadership of the european union today is going to shoot me what do you think i've been through there of these crisis the root of this crisis is that the political leaders who has given. a big

part of its power to the let's call it financial establishment the people that were never voted for him never elected. they seem to have more power than the elected leadership that is something that has to change and another point of view maybe it sounds a little bit moral but making the money without producing anything is immoral and that's what we're paying right now so what you seem to be suggesting is that greece has lost more than they've gained from joining the european union and the euro zone listen our fault is that we lost chances. we should have done more in the good things. right now it's costing us a lot you can imagine that. germany for example is lending us money when the big hit with the biggest interest rate. itself is borrowing so they're making money

out of the help to us now some critics say that. year was introduced in greece wages have been increasing at a pace seven times higher than and germany that you just mentioned down for example salaries for public servants have increased by seventy six percent so some critics may say that it's actually inefficient botching inefficient cost management that pull out to the guy or situation. there is truth that the greek political system. for. the past of the last twenty years was. giving money giving benefits in order to collect votes. that is not the only reason though for these. patients that you referred to because you must keep in mind that when we enter the european union the salary of the

public servants in greece was one tenth of the salary of public servants in germany and it was supposed to be that. the aim of the european union was that all europeans would come to the same level so yes there was an augmentation of i don't know seventy percent you said but still the salaries are lower than in germany how bad the situation really is what are the chances of greece defaulting on it in the near future i believe in the perspectives of greek economy maybe right now it seems rather gruesome picture but we have many capacities that haven't been explored them best. on of the reasons i'm here in moscow to promote the conference that we were having and wrote us about the great cross from collaboration there are many things to do specially in the energy sector of course the tourists sector the real estate sector the corporation and coal production of. terms of high

technological value with russian know how and production in greece this would have advantages for both sides plus the fact that with the help of the european union greek farmers have stopped producing can you imagine a country like greece right now called feed its people we don't produce enough meat we don't produce enough we give them boil we are importing a country like greece that should be producing everything can produce anything and should be and who we had the scheme from the european union that farmers were paid so that they wouldn't produce anything. we destroyed one of our main the main assets of our economy and this has changed now this country and they are giving us

full of disappointment i think it was a wide decision for greece to join the european union and first place the decision to join the e.u. was a wise one the way we entered the monetary union was the wrong. relation of the greek drachma. to the euro wasn't correct the way we sense. who made the transition from the drachma to the euro was incorrect for example prices went three times up we didn't pay attention at the time because what we gained from. the monetary union right away was. credit. greece and greeks could borrow money easier but it wasn't used in the correct way it was used just to buy things but

also the investments that were made in europe were only to sell germany you know what's the biggest investment it's made in greece for the past ten years super markets. and we ended up buying german projects buying german cause we have helped the german economy very much by our buying capacity i'm telling you maybe greece borrowed a lot of money the past ten years from the european union from germany especially why don't you check out how much money germany has made out of greece the past ten years you'll discover that it's more than what we've just recently be just have announced a very ambitious participation program. and die in time just how may just take companies in an effort to raise some money i'm close some holes why do you think about program i think that

a big part of the public sector should be privatized i don't think that the current government is. moving in the correct direction and i'll give you an example that has to do i know that there was there is a russian interest from the russian railways for the greek railways and i am sure that. with russian management them brushing know how the greek gray laws can make great ways can make money while today they're losing money and as far as i know the greek government hasn't responded to the proposals so things like that have to change. for privatization but with. a bit of development we don't want to sell out greeks and we're not going to sell the acropolis as some german magazines and newspapers proposed i wonder how they would

feel if there were dos for them to sell them not to go to something of similar historical and the motion of value and i do believe that what. the european union and the troika as we call the european union monetary fund and the european central bank the proposal the plan that they have it's not working. raising taxes. and the economy that is in deep deep recession doesn't solve problems it creates even more what future do you see for the unified europe do you think it will survive this crisis i would like to see europe survive but there are many things that i have my objections for example the relations between the european union and russia they should become better. greece has tried to be a bridge between good of p.

and union and russia and russia successfully sometimes on successfully now those there are some new member states and they get up and you know that are reacting but russia is a part of europe so i can't imagine a europe without russia there must be a closer form of cooperation between the two sides and everybody is going to benefit from that you mention germany several times throughout the last me finish and on be german call it just a few days ago i'm going merkel if the euro collapses europe will collapse do you agree with me and i want to see the european cut and see. continue to exist i believe that we didn't start it and the right way. but it is the right direction we just need a new framework and a new understanding for us because right now very hating

a country that is not entirely responsible everybody has its own responsibilities on the sponsibility piece and it's the weakest link but that all those through you saw that the problem of greece really quickly became a problem for i love for portugal now we're afraid for spain for italy so it can't be only greece's problem the whole structure was wrong and we have to change and we have to find another approach i still do believe in the european union and the european dream. but in the larger dream and in a more correct way and as i said from the beginning i counted knives in europe without russia.
