not lose it'
[01] PM Tsipras: 'It might be the last opportunity for Greece. Let's
not lose it'
The evaluation of Greece's economic program must be completed as soon as
possible because it may be Greece's last chance, Prime Minister Alexis
Tsipras said in an interview with Huffington Post Editor-in-Chief
Arianna Huffington on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in
Davos on Friday.
"The evaluation must be completed as soon as possible. Expedience is
part of this program's strategy to success," Tsipras was quoted as
saying during the interview published on thr website of Huffington Post
Greece. "A successful and timely evaluation, which will lead quickly to
a deal about the debt, will also bring about the reinstatement of trust,
a rapid return to development and a complete change of mindset. I hope
and wish that we do not lose this, possibly last, chance for Greece,"
he added.
Commenting about Greece's European partners, he said that they seem to
understand this, as they also have to deal with an unprecedented refugee
crisis which is also heavily affecting the country.
"Everything points to Greece being able to bounce back. As long as the
mistakes of the past are not repeated," the premier told Huffington.
However, having three different institutions contribute to negotiations is
no easy feat, Tsipras noted, especially when those various institutions
differ on their evaluations. "I hope that the many disagreements
and conflicts between the institutions do not become the excuse for
unacceptable delays that would invalidate the great opportunity for a
Grecovery," he said.
