Tsipras wants full troika text
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
Main opposition SYRIZA party leader Alexis Tsipras has asked for the full text of the new agreement between the government and the troika to be submitted to Parliament.
In an application for the submission of documents also signed by his parliamentary group and addressed to Labour and Finance Ministers, Tsipras and his deputies refer to “2014 Memorandum” citing a report in daily Efimerida ton Syntakton, which claimed that the government was covering up a new package of austerity measures on labour issues.
“This report presents the timing and the content of regulations, which are a tombstone on workers’ rights and strangle the citizens’ dignity,” SYRIZA said in a statement.
The party pointed out the “disclosure of the document in English shows that this particular agreement is part of a larger text, drawn up along the lines of the two previous memoranda.”
