2:32 pm
political and economic debate in new york why some time now do you think the european union has done and not how greece out and not enough in the right timing and greece was just the weakest link in the in the building in the. well constructed it is a problem when you promote the financial gratian 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 be what do you think i've been through there are these crisis that's the root of this crisis is that the political leadership has given up a part of its power to the let's call it a list. of people that would never vote for him never elect. but they
2:33 pm
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 it gained from joining the european union and the euro zone it's not our fault is that we lost chances we. then should have done more and the good things. right now it's costing us a lot you can imagine that. germany for example is lending us money with a big hit with a big interest rate then that itself is borrowing so they are making money out of the help to us now some critics say that. year was introduced in greece
2:34 pm
wages have been increasing at a pace seven times higher than enjoyment if 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 bodging inefficient cost management that plot to these dire situation this and there is a truth that the greek political system. for. of 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 of the salary of public servants in germany and it was supposed to be that. the aim of the european
2:35 pm
union was that all europeans would come to the same level so yes there was another patient of i don't know seventy percent he 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 exploited them that's. one of the reasons i'm here in moscow to promote the conference that we're having and wrote us about the great russian collaboration there are many things to do specially in the energy sector of course the tourist sector the real estate sector the corporation and coal production of. times of high technological value with russian know how and
2:36 pm
production in greece this would have advantages for both sides plus the fact that with help of the european union greek farmers have stopped producing can you imagine the country like greece right now kong feed its people we don't produce enough meat we don't produce enough we even oil we are importing a country like greece that should be producing everything comfort yourself and should be and we had the scheme from the european union that farmers were paid so that they wouldn't produce anything. we destroyed one of the main the main assets of our economy and this has changed now sentiment here giving is full of disappointment do you think it was a wise decision for greece to join the european union in the first place the decision to join the e.u. was
2:37 pm
a wise one the way we entered the monetary union was the wrong. relation of the greek calling drachma. euro was incorrect the way we transfer. who made the transition from the drachma to the euro was incorrect for example prices went three times 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 and europe were only to sell germany you know what's the biggest investment it's made in greece for the past ten years super
2:38 pm
markets. and we ended up buying german productive buying german because 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 being european you know 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 borrow recently be greek i would just have announced a very ambitious parents station program. and die in time some just may just take companies in an effort to raise some money and close some holes why do you think about a 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
2:39 pm
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 and russian know how the greek gray laws can make railways can make money well 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. the spirit of development we don't want to sell out greetings and we're not going to sell the acropolis as some german magazines and newspapers proposed i wonder how they would feel if they were we would ask them to sell the neigbor gate something of similar historical and emotional value and i do believe that what.
2:40 pm
think european union the troika as we call the european union monetary fund and the european central bank of 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 oaky and union in russia and russia successfully sometimes unsuccessfully in others there are some new member states in the european union that are reacting but russia is a part of europe so i can't imagine
2:41 pm
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. me finish it on the german call with just a few days ago i'm going merkel fat 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 and we just need a new framework and a new understanding between us because right now very. not entirely responsible everybody has its own responsibilities on the sponsibility
2:42 pm
things and it's the weakest link but there are others through. the problem of greece through quickly became a problem for. now we're afraid for spain for italy so it can't be only greece's problems the whole structure was wrong and we have to change we have to find another approach i do believe in the european union and the european dream. but in a larger dream and in a more correct way and as i said from the beginning i can't imagine europe without russia. russia has the same i think there is nothing for me to sit here and it will make me feel a currency in crisis and an unknown future but is there
