yanis: not really.i does put forward remark regarding the new president of the european commission is over the last 10 years of the crisis, the position of the commission -- significance of the commission has decreased. bodies that are not even established in the european union law. the one appointment that does warrant a great deal of discussion and commenting as the appointment of the new head, president of the european central bank. it remains the only real institution in the euro zone and is a pillar that will make or break the euro zone and the european union. lagarde has experience with her work at the international monitoring -- monetary fund. she is being called an uber dove. do you agree? yanis: she is a fine lady. i got on well with her and have respect for her. our discussions were always forthcoming and useful, but i have to say that even though she is remarkably experienced in creating alliances and maintaining the franco german -- her legions to the german point of view clashed fiercely wi

cyprus critics say it lacks transparency and that the program just makes real estate tycoons like yanis misery even richer. the president's son is currently building a penthouse high rise in the missile with your level apartments selling for more than 2000000000 euros he's not worried by the fact that this entitles them to a golden passport after all they invest considerable sums. a big number is our middle east friends middle east in g.c.c. countries. asia and the russians said that is 5 or 6 percent dependence on this program. i guess if you take away any niche market from any market it's going to have some negative impact. well the influx of rich russians has changed life in the midst of not want to speak to us on camera about their new passports although business consultant says most are mainly interested in making a profit. he calls his a terrible 5 percent of the e.u. and in 5 years. so a loop holes investment was also the benefit of the citizens. and attractive deal and one that cypriot investment consultants a keen to promote after all where else can you acquire an e.u. passport

extreme right—wing party that looks like it has got into parliament and possibly a new party led by yanisrime minister does micro—finance minister when he came into office in 2015. he robbed brussels up the wrong way and was quickly shelved as alexis tsipras pivoted more towards the centre. his party looks like it has gotten. a splintered parliament but it looks like new democracy the centre—right has won an outright majority and it will now look to build its profile as the leaders oppose bail out greece and there is a lot of hope that needs to be restored. growth is still only about 296, restored. growth is still only about 2%, unemployment still close to 20%. 500,000 greeks left this country at the height of the financial crisis, so the height of the financial crisis, so there is still a very upward hill to climb for this country. let's take a look at some of the other stories making the news. malta has said that all 65 migrants on board a german—flagged rescue ship will be allowed onto the island. the vessel, alan kurdi, arrived off malta's coast after it was denied access to italian p

remember, alexis tsipras, one of the earlier mistakes seen by europe was that yanis harry thacker is,is tsipras's team, tried to represent a more populist front to europe, and it didn't work. alexis tsipras got rid of him in 2015. the leader of new democracy presents himself as a more serious figure, leading greece down the path of reform and privatisation, cutting bureaucracy and leading greece out of its bailout. this party has yo—yo dinner and out of power in the last 50 yea rs and out of power in the last 50 years and is blamed by many for the kind of nepotism that led greece into problems in the first place. so if new democracy wins this evening there might be a worrying echo of there might be a worrying echo of the past. but new democracy say they can lead greece out of the bailout, they are the new face of democracy and give greece the glimmer of hope it desperately craves. how important will young voters be in this election? they are the ones that left in their droves because unemployment rates were so high. about 500,000 young people left the country in a debilitating brain d

al-jazeera athens let's get some perspective on the elections and bring in yanis could some tissues in european affairs analyst joining us live from athens thanks for being with us on al-jazeera so how big a battle is the ruling party facing in sunday's election. well it's a very difficult task for the root who governing party to remain in power all polls show that the opposition party in new democracies leading by 8 to 12 points so everyone is almost convinced that there will be a victory by the opposition party the main question that comes for tomorrow's election is with the be an absolute majority for the opposition and if the opposition will need to have a coalition with other parties in the parliament so which way will it swing then will there be an outright majority or how do you see it playing out well it largely depends on how many of these will reach the threshold of 3 percent to go into the parliament there is the former finance minister spot the he is the struggling to enter the parliament and also in the north or orthodox far right party that tries to enter the parliament s
