Gov't spokeswoman Gerovassili on constitutional revision

"Nobody has implied and nobody has thought to bypass the constitutional process for the revision of the Constitution," Gerovassili said.

Regarding the agreement on former international airport Elliniko, Gerovassili said: "No one celebrates. We negotiated and achieved improvements for the benefit of the Greek state. In the summer we took a deal and fought for better conditions. This agreement also included the term of privatisation."

On the program review, she said that it will be concluded in the next days and the disbursement of the loan tranche will follow. "All prior actions have been completed. Now it lies on EU parliaments to approve it, where needed," she explained. "We are doing what we have promised to do in order to get out of the crisis with constant fight and the society on its feet."

Asked on the negotiations on labour issues, the government spokeswoman said that the issue of the abolition of the two extra salaries has not been raised. "We follow certain steps, methodically, to reach the desired result. The left party was the one fighting for the rights of workers and as a government it is doing the same thing," she noted.
