People experience the results of failed government policies in their daily life, says PASOK

In the face of "impending defeat and people's rejection, the unrepentant Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis has already exhibited disrespect to institutions by preemptively announcing second elections in July," said PASOK-Movement For Change party in a statement issued on Saturday.

However, criticizing the Greek premier's Saturday interview to SKAI TV, the party added that in this interview Mitsotakis "tried to keep up the single elections pretence by referring to the May 21 national elections as "just the one ballot."

The party slammed Mitsotakis further by saying that "people experience the results of government policy every day, despite the fictitious image that Mitsotakis wants to nurture," adding that "the prime minister -who abolished the public character of the National Health System in a recent law and who consciously chose not to strategically fund it from the Recovery Fund- today promised to reform it."

All this, the party concluded, happens at a time when "people are faced with a tsunami of price hikes, including in basic foods, while overall price hikes exceed the European average."
