Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis was found in a supermarket in the center of Athensthis morning, Tuesday 5/03/2024, emphasizing that “the effort to reduce prices continues”.
The prime minister also said that the government will make sure that the Lent and Easter table is better this year for consumers. “We will do everything necessary for a cheaper Lenten table”, he stressed.
«We have come to see in practice the effectiveness of measures to reduce prices. Piobviously, and we haven’t addressed the accuracy problem but it’s an important step which concerns the functioning of the market and will have the expected result. I would like to single out baby milk, where we see reductions of 15% to 20% because the prices really got out of hand. And the effort continues.”
Asked if other price reductions will follow, he saide: “We are in the middle of a big effort, an important step has been taken, we have also legislated the net prices for fresh products. The battle once morest accuracy is an ongoing battle. We recognize the battle of households. We intervene Mr. Papadakis, we have real reductions of 15%-20% on 4,000 products. It was a steep rise in prices that had to be dealt with. We have put the worst of inflation behind us. We are also talking regarding energy, there the intervention we made was a significant de-escalation, therefore we are dealing with what we call the overall basket of the household”.
“We are well on our way to a minimum wage of 950 euros at the end of the four years”, said the Prime Minister who was accompanied by the Minister of Development, Kostas Skrekas.
